"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." Psalms 139:13-16
I went to the doctor again on Wednesday and there's a little progress. I'm about a centimeter dilated, which is something at least. He feels like my body is now starting to do what it needs to to get ready to have the body and that by next week things will be good to go. He seemed to think that I'll go to the induction date of next Saturday the 29th. (We'll see!)

Just had my check up for this week...still no change.
He did schedule my induction, however. If the baby doesn't come earlier, I'll get induced on November 29th. So at least we know that now!
I've tried to get myself prepared in case baby does come early. We've got the car seat in the car, the nursery primed, neutral clothes washed and put away, a bag packed for me and a bag packed for the baby, arrangements for Cooper for middle-of-the-night and daytime runs to the hospital, and a double stroller ordered.
I would honestly love for baby to come before the 29th because I'm just hurting and I don't see how my belly can get any bigger. BUT! I know God's plan is perfect and definitely better than mine, so that's what I'll pray for.

I'm actually close to being in week 37. I saw the doctor today and all is well. Baby sounds great and there is "no change" so he said he would see me next week. No induction date is scheduled right now. He said we'd talk about it next week.
I felt like baby was coming Monday, so I'm a little surprised that nothing is going on.
I'll keep you posted in the days to come.
