No baby

For those of you that read this I was supposed to be induced today although we weren't' really telling anyone so it wasn't announced on facebook.

Unfortunately the hospital is full and booked up so we just have to wait. Because I am only 6 days overdue they aren't rushing to get me in unfortunately although they weren't doing any inducements at all because they are so busy.

So I wait.

Getting closer with mixed emotions

Well I am getting closer to having her here now. I really want to go into labour myself though. As much as it is nice knowing that I will be induced on Wednesday and that I will have her I feel that I am being excluded from doing this on my own. I want to know what it is like to start having some pains and wondering if this is it or not. I really would like to do this on my own and have to wonder if it is real contractions and stuff. I keep talking to her and telling her that I really want her to get things going that I would love to have her Wednesday but that I will take her tomorrow too.
On another note I have decided that I am extremely lucky to have Tony as a husband. He is very good as a husband to a pregnant woman. He is always checking to make sure I am okay. He never comments if I don't want to go out or if I don't get stuff done that he wants done. Little things he says are no big deal. He even called at lunch today just to check. He knows I was having back pain last night and this morning as wanted to make sure I was okay. It unfortunately was from my back injury and not a labour sign. I stretched it out and it okay now. I told him that I was happy to have him cause I know so many men that complain about their pregnant wives. His comment was that he didn't have to complain about his wife cause he didn't have one that was a problem. Probably because he is so good. I know he is going to be a great Father and I can't wait to see him with her. I know she is going to be his little girl that is for sure. I know she will be able to get away with anything from him. Except maybe dating. I have a feeling she is never going to be allowed to do that in his mind. Well I am off to go for another walk. There is another pregnant woman that is walking around the block lately as well. I have no idea how far along she is or anything. I think if I see her today I will ask. I don't think that will be rude since we both keep walking by each other and laughing. Hopefully my next post will be one to tell my birth story and say that she is here. Hopefully on her own.

1 more

I have 1 more day till my due date and 1 more week till my scheduled induction date. I am really hoping that I don't make it to next week. It isn't that I want to rush her it is just that I don't want to be induced. I was hoping my walk with Kortney and my walk with Tony last night would work but no such luck. Nothing at all. I am still having Braxton hicks basically on top of each other but no real contractions. I am hoping that at my appointment on Friday there will be a difference in dilation at least to show that my body is doing something. My doctor normally would see me next Tuesday cause I am going every week but she is getting me in on Friday to check me and then Tuesday again if nothing to plan for the induction. I think I am more nervous for that then for labour itself.

We are all ready for her to be here though. The car seat is in the car. The bag is all packed and ready to go. The room is all done now and just waiting to put a baby in it. I am sure I have forgot to pack something for the hospital but I don't plan on being there long enough to matter and the store is really close that Tony could go and get something if needed.

We had a nice long weekend that we didn't really do much. We had stuff planned for everyday but nothing big. We had dinner at Tony's parents and it was nice to just relax and have a good dinner. Monday I got to go to the shooting range for probably the last time for a while. It was nice cause no one was there so I could stay and watch Tony and stuff. If other people are there they usually shoot big stuff and I go and walk out back or sit in the car cause I am not risking her hearing now. I got to shoot my handgun quite a bit and didn't notice how much ammo I was using till Tony started to laugh. I can't load my own right now cause the bullets are lead tipped and he doesn't want me handling them so he kept loading the magazine and I kept shooting away. I was doing really good though and the target was basically all my shots. I was very proud of it. I know I won't be going as much after she is born so I guess I had to get it out of my system. It is now and I am okay with not going for quite a while. The guys can all go and let me have my own time with my daughter.

Hopefully my next post will be to tell my birth story but who knows. I think it is funny that I keep wanting the contractions to hurt cause I know once they do I won't want them to anymore.

Excitement,happiness and a little sad.

Well I definitely have a mix of emotions right now. I am 39 weeks today so only a week to go for my due date. I am excited to meet my little one that is for sure but I am not really in a rush. It would be nice if she came right on time though. I will miss being pregnant I know that already, I quite enjoy this feeling of pregnancy.
I have had a busy but nice week. Monday I went to visit a good friend and it was nice to have a visit before we both have our babies. I know i will learn a lot from her. Then I worked Monday night shift. For the first time I didn't really mind being there. It went by fast I was happy to be leaving. Don't get me wrong I LOVE my job but I was ready for a break. I don't go back till May of 2010. Then Tuesday I didn't really get any sleep only an hour and a half which wasn't' really enough. I had my doctors appointment which isn't really a big deal at this point. Then I went and got waxed. I made sure my legs, underarms and eyebrows were all done so I don't have to worry about them for a while now. Then we went out to the shooting range. I won't be able to go much once she is born so I figure I will get my time in now. We were the only ones there which was nice cause we just shot the small stuff so I could be there the whole time. When people shoot the larger stuff I have to leave so the sound isn't bad for the baby. Yesterday I had to take the car into Chevy for the servicing, now that is done we can out the car seat in the car. Tony had planned to do it sooner but when we noticed the car was due he didn't want it in there with others going in there too. He was worried they would touch it or something. I then got my nails done and a pedicure. They gave me a great foot and leg massage it was wonderful. I didn't know how bad I needed that. Then the best part of my week. We went out for dinner just the 2 of us. We tend to not go out for dinner when it is just the 2 of us. This was my Valentines dinner that we were supposed to do but ran out of time. We went to the Olive Garden which I love. It was so nice to just have a great dinner just the 2 of us. We talked about everything and yet not much about the baby. I think because we talk about her so much. It was then that I got a bit sad. It will never be just the 2 of us any more. For 12 years it has been "us' Now "us" will be 3 not 2. I am so happy to be having a baby finally and adding to our family but it will be different. I know it will be better but 12 years of 2 has been great, and many many years of 3 will be wonderful I am sure.
