Update

Today we had what we had hoped was our last prenatal visit to the doctor...Journey was "technically" due 2 days ago, on August 14th according to the ultrasound. They have given us the 17th as a due date too which is tomorrow, but it doesn't look like he will be here then, either. The little fella has decided he is comfy right where he is, and isn't in any hurry to come out.

Doctor Micetich said today, that I wasn't any more dilated or effaced than I was last week or the week before. I could carry this baby for up to 2 more weeks! AHH!

He has scheduled another appointment this week for Thursday morning at 10 AM just to see if there is any change in the next couple of days, and if not, we will discuss using the "inducing gel". Unfortunately, the doc isn't a big fan of inducing, so he told us not to get our hopes up about Thursday, because chances are he will see us in the office again on next week for another weekly check-up.

Jeremy and I were somewhat disappointed in the news because we already had all of our stuff packed and loaded up today, in hopes that he would tell us "Alright kids, head on across the street to the hospital, you're in labor!" Or at least, that he would put me in labor!

Of course our timing is not God's timing, so whenever Journey DOES decide to come out, he will be RIGHT ON TIME :)
