This is really just a post to let you guys know that I'm still around. I have nothing new or insightful to say. While I have been adamantly opposed to induction for quite a while (excepting, of course, for medical reasons), I have to admit that I take comfort in knowing that in 48 hours, I'll be in the hospital with a ripening cervix. I kept on quizzing my doctor about the medical necessity of this induction because I wanted to convince myself that I wasn't just doing it so I could get this baby out of me. Because of no-Sunday-induction rules at my hospital, I would either be induced at 41w2d or 41w4d. So I wouldn't call this frivolous.
We're not telling our family we're going to be induced this weekend. We just want to experience labor on our own, without feeling the need to update all the time.
At least I'm not in the office this week. Thank God.

Wishing you all the best for the induction! I hope your labour progress quickly. I am praying for your family. God bless!
You will all be in my thoughts and prayers. The waiting part really is so awful and for what it's worth I think you have been a trooper. Keep us posted,
love

The last few days always feel like an eternity. Glad there is an end in sight for you!
Having been there- past my die date staring down the barrel of an induction and thinking "this isn't what I wanted"- I certainly know how you are feeling at this moment.
While I will be thinking labour-inducing thoughts for you for the next 24 hours or so, I hope you can take some comfort in knowing that you will be meeting your baby on Saturday no matter what!!
Can't wait for your good news...
Oy vey! That was supposed to read "past my due date". What a terrible typo! So sorry!!!
You aren't telling them? But what happens if you forget to tell them the baby was born and weeks go by before you remember to tell them. That last post of yours just cracked me up because like you said it isn't like you could forget to tell them. Well anyway, I am glad for you that tomorrow will be the big day. Hopefully it all goes well for you. We will be waiting for updates later.
Best of luck! I'll be thinking of you!
best of all good luck. you deserve it!
Best wishes! Can't wait to see pics of the little one.
Oh, going overdue is definitely misery-inducing on so many levels. I'm sorry!
I'll be thinking of you and praying for a speedy, healthy, wonderful delivery this weekend (at the latest ... hellloooo, Little Guy? How 'bout coming sooner to give your momma a break?)
Hang in there ... I know it doesn't feel like it, but you are in the home stretch.
you will be in my thoughts and prayers!
Im so jealous! I wish I could relive my childrens' births...Take it all in, because it's so easy to forget :(
Best wishes!
