Still no change. He is just not ready to come out yet. Maybe he is waiting on Cooper and me to come up with a name! If that's the case, he may be in there a while longer. Everything is still looking good, I"m just getting anxious. I go back on Friday for a sonogram to double check his size and the dates. Just by feeling him, the doc said he is probably weighing about 7 1/2 pounds now. Hopefully he won't be a monster baby! If anything has changed on Friday, she said we would for sure induce Monday. I'm not even getting my hopes up though. I wish the doctor had never told me once we reached one centimeter we could pick a day. My hopes have been up for 4 weeks now, so it's just getting frustrating when I hear "you're just not doing anything"! I would honestly rather go over my due date by two weeks than have to have a c section. Dr. said her maximum she would let me go over was 10 days, then we have to have a baby. After 41 1/2 weeks they start to worry about the placenta not supplying enough blood or loosing fluid. Wish she hadn't told me that either, I don't need anything else to stress out about. She wasn't worried about any of that right now because I am measuring right on time and first babies tend to be a little stubborn. All I can do is prop my cankles up and just wait!

I felt the same way about a c-section and I was devastated when Henry's due date came and went with still no baby.
Are you delivering at OCH?
So I heard that a pedicure can induce labor... my friend's dr actually suggested it! :) Hang in there! I remember those last couple of weeks... He will SO be worth the wait!
C-sections aren't bad at all; I have had 2 now! Don't be scared, and my incision is barely visible besides the fact that nothing I wear would come close to showing it. Good luck and I can't wait to hear the name and see pictures.
