Pregnancy "update"

Let's just start off by saying that I am really frustrated. I am tired. Tired of being uncomfortable, tired of getting my hopes up, tired of having false labor, and tired of not progressing.

I know this just means that baby girl and my body isn't quite ready yet, but having never made it to my due date to pretty much being overdue is a big difference for me. It is really frustrating for me because this is the pregnancy that I was the most sick, the most uncomfortable, and the pregnancy where I worked (on my feet for 8+ hours a day) up until I was 37 weeks! On top of that, I nursed the whole pregnancy and STILL am going to be overdue.

With that being said, this will be the last update until she comes out. I'm getting tired of wishing and hoping that this is the day. So, maybe if I just not talk or think about it, it'll just happen.

I went to the doctors today. I weighed 172 lbs and blood pressure was normal. I was 1 cm dilated for the last 3 appointment and am now only 1 1/2 cm dilated. All the contractions I've been having has done nothing.

My doctor was going to strip my membranes today, but couldn't even do that because my cervix is still up so high!

I have an NST scheduled on Monday to make sure the placenta isn't getting old and that my amniotic fluid level is ok. Then if she still hasn't come by then, I'll have another NST on Wednesday. My induction date will be on Thursday the 17th (I'll be 41 weeks then) at 5 am. But (yes a freaking but), because it has been so busy in the maternity ward, I have to call at 4 am to see if they're busy and if not, I'll have to get a different time or different day to get induced.

Really really frustrating. I'm thinking of going to work just to get out of the house and think about other things. I'm also worried about being overdue and her getting bigger and bigger as the days go by. Ahh well. God has a plan for everything and the time will come when it'll come.

As for the time being, I hope people stop asking me when she is coming, because if I knew, I wouldn't be so frustrated!
