The date is set!

I went for my check up today (yes, a day early) and Dr. Joy would like to induce me early! No, she's not concerned about anything. As a matter of fact, it's the opposite... everything's looking so great that she sees no harm in inducing as early as possible... that way I can stop stressing out about everything... the anxiety is overwhelming. We both just want the baby here!

So the date is set... I go in at 6:30am on Friday, May 22nd. I'm very excited because 1) it's much more "real" now that we have a date... and 2) I will hopefully have the baby on the 22nd!! I'm a 22nd baby... my dad was... I've always been OBSESSED with the number 22... and I've always wanted to have baby on the 22nd. Well, looks like it might happen that way! Pending an incredibly long labor, that is... knock on wood!

The crazy thing is... that's only 9 DAYS AWAY! I'm counting in days now... not weeks, not months... DAYS! Yikes!!! Baby's almost here! Woo hoo!!!

As for my other stats... I've gained a pound in the last week... for a grand total of 33 pounds. Baby's still head down... and I've started to dilate. I'm only about 1 centimeter right now, but dilated still! Blood pressure's perfect. Baby's heart beat is still 140s. Everything is looking good.

So... who had May 22nd in the Baby Pool???
