38 Weeks 5 Days
12th Prenatal Apt

Savannah's Heart beat is 148!
It took the doctor almost 5 mins to get her heart beat! Some little girl didn't want to sit still! haha.

Well unfortunately there is absolutely no change from last week!!! :( I was exactly like this with Brenton for 2 weeks and than bam he came!

I've had some irregular contractions but nothing consistent!

I am set to be induced at Noon on Monday!!! The doctor thinks I will deliver by 9pm! So lets hope so! Unless she decides to come early, which I'm totally fine with! Just my luck I'll go into labor that day! haha.

The only bad thing about being induced is that she informed me holding off on a epidural wont really happen. I really wanted to try and last as long as possible. We even bought a book on pressure points and I wanted to sit in the hospitals jetted tub for a bit! I'm still going to try but she said they will come strong and hard once they induce me. So we will see! For my last one ill def get a doula and go as long as possible. But hopefully with each kid the amount of epidural will be less and less! :)

So one more update on Saturday and then Our Sweet Baby Girl will be with us!

induction? eek! I really hope you go into labor on your own. It's so much less painful (if you can believe it). You might want to check your Bishop's score before the induction. (No, not that kind of Bishop =]) Try these two sites. The first one is a good explanation and the second is a quick quiz that interprets the chart for your personal evaluation. Hope this helps. I'm not trying to preach or anything, I just wanted to make sure you were informed. My sister just had her 7th child & she had no clue what the Bishop's Score was, so this is more of an FYI. =]
