Yep I'm still here, and still pregnant, 2 days overdue. Unless there is a good medical reason, I do not plan to induce until 42 weeks, which is the longest they will let me go, and my midwife is fine with that. I have a non-stress test next week if I am still pregnant then to make sure everything still looks fine. I am really hoping to avoid induction; I want baby to come when he is ready and I want things to go as naturally as possible.
At this point, how I feel about still being pregnant changes quite frequently. My midwife is out of town until Tuesday, so currently I'm hoping Xander waits until then. It helps that I really don't feel too bad. I am uncomfortable of course, and very ready to get my body back, but not miserable. But I can't say I'm not looking forward to getting this over with and meeting my baby! So if I'm still pregnant on Tuesday, I'll be doing a lot of walking and eating spicy food. Until then, I'm just hanging out, keeping up with housework, reading books and spending quality time with James, trying to enjoy the last few days before our lives are changed forever!
