Well, I am still pregnant. Now Brianna is 3 days late. I am getting so miserable. Throwing up all the time and being nauseas the rest of the time sucks. I go to the doc on Thursday with the hopes of hearing when I will be induced. I would love it if something happened before then because I really do not want to be induced. But if that is the only end, then I guess I will just have to suck it up. Bobby is funny, he asks me every morning before he leaves for work if he should just stay home. Not gonna happen. I think he is now trying the reverse psychology thing with Brianna, he told me when he left this morning "Try not to go into labor or anything". Too bad it is not working, still nothing.......

Officially Overdue Well, it's official... I am overdue..... Yesterday was Brianna's due date and apparently she doesn't want to come out yet. I am getting really anxious now and I hate this waiting thing. I started having contractions on Friday afternoon, but they only lasted for a couple of hours and were a half hour apart. I finally understood though why everyone kept telling me not to worry, I will know when I am having real contractions. They hurt like a son of a bitch. I literally had tears coming out of my eyes. Oh and Bobby was there so he kept talking to me and I guess he could tell he was annoying me because I wouldn't answer him (plus the fact that I was dying) so he finally said, "should I just shut the f*** up?" To which I finally answered YES!!!! Anyway, hopefully something will happen soon. I was a week late too, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised..... And I am REALLY glad that the damn doctor got my hopes up by saying that he'd be shocked if I made it past the weekend, GOOD CALL DOC!!!!

We have Dialation!! Today I had my 5th weekly appointment and I am finally dialated!! My due date is in 2 days so I think I would have cried if I wasn't, not to mention I have been feeling like crap the past couple of days. I thought I was going to pass out in the doc's office, I was sweating and felt like I was burning up and I have been so congested. He told me to just stay hydrated and rest. So anyway, I am finally 2.5 cm dialated and I am 75% effaced, which he tells me is excellant. He says he will be shocked if I make it past the weekend still pregnant, let's hope he is right!! I have been having some bad pains in my stomach and lower abdomen all day so he says that is really good. Man, it would be nice if I got to go wake up Bobby in a couple of hours to go to the hospital!!! I am keeping my fingers crossed.....

4th Weekly Visit Today I had my 4th weekly appointment (38 weeks 3 days). Nothing exciting again unfortunately. My BP was great at 122/70, no weight gain (WOO HOO!!) and Brianna's heartbeat was strong and fast. I am still not dialated but my doc said not to worry. Sometimes you don't even dialate until you go into labor when it is your first. Great.... He also said that since my strep culture was positive, as soon as my water breaks (even if there are no contractions), I start bleeding or I have contractions I am going to have to go to the hospital because the penicillan IV will have to be started right away. He said I don't get to wait at home like everyone else. That sucks. I asked him if he had any guess when I would go and he said between 10 days before my due date and 10 days after. So whenever. I then said that since tomorrow is 10 days away does he mean then? He of course laughed. Oh well, guess she is going to take her sweet old time. 11 more days to go.......
