Wishing and hoping and planning and praying...

The protein came back normal but I guess I looked so pathetic the doctor said if I didn't pop on my own by my next visit (this Thursday) they'd go ahead and induce me. When he asks when I want to do this my answer will be, "I can meet you at Labor and Delivery in 20 minutes. Just let me call the grandparents and move the car." One of the girls at work tried to talk me out of it saying my labor would be so much harder. Hmm...stay miserably pregnant, let her get that much closer to 9 lbs., risk her being too late to claim on the taxes this year (it's a practical issue -- we need the money to move to a bigger place) or get an IV drip of pitocin and/or let them break my water and actually have my daughter. I like option B myself.

Well, back to the "family fun" of Christmas Eve dinner and my hopefully labor-hastening ginger ale. I hope everyone has a good holiday, and hopefully the next post will be Baby Sue pictures.
