Is this really happening?

I'm scheduled to be induced Friday the 20th at Midnight. Just FYI for the three of you that have access to my blog thus far. I'm still trying to figure this thing out.

The Waiting Game



First Post Disclaimer: I'm not going to go into a long introduction here because if you are reading this, then you probably already know who we are. And if you don't know who we are, then I assume that reading this blog will be extremely boring to you and you have lost interest by now.

Moving on...

My due date came and went on March 13th. People have been asking me if I'm getting anxious. And I go back and forth. I have to keep reminding myself that there are just a few more days to go since my Dr. is planning on inducing me Friday the 20th at the earliest. But truthfully I'm hoping that something happens naturally earlier. So I've just been doing random things. Dusting, bulking up the food storage, packing and repacking my hospital bag, dusting, replanting the long lost herb garden, dusting, purchasing life insurance and dusting again... you know that sort of stuff. I'm sure most women who have reached this point in pregnancy can relate. I'm also getting in those last servings of dessert because I'm serious about slimming down in time for my friend's wedding in June. I wouldn't be that worried if I weren't actually in the wedding. Losing baby weight, blah blah blah.

Corey had to work today and was nervous about being tied up when I'm so close to delivering. But the truth, folks, is that I'm really not close. I can just tell. He is sweet for worrying though. But he is literally 20 minutes away, so I'm not that worried. We both are trying to enjoy these last few days just the two of us. People ask all the time if we are "ready" and I'm not sure how to answer that question. Can you ever be ready for a life-changing event? Chew on that while you anxiously await my next post.
