This Is Getting Old...

So I'm 41w1d today, and baby's still quite comfortable where she is. I had an appointment yesterday afternoon and got an induction scheduled - a two-part process, since I'm only 50% effaced. They'll give me cervidil on Saturday night and then start pitocin on Sunday morning. That was the earliest they could get me in, though they've promised to call me if an earlier slot becomes available. I was (am) pretty disappointed to have to wait that long, since they'd told me last week that I'd be induced today or tomorrow if baby hadn't come yet. The good news is that baby's still healthy and doing great, so I'm trying to be thankful for that, even though I want her evicted from her current quarters. :p

I did decide last week that I wouldn't be returning to school this week, so I've started my maternity leave. Teaching was making me incredibly exhausted, and I've now got a nice head cold too, so it's just as well. I'm off through spring break and will return to my classroom the first full week of April.

Anyway, I'm kind of in a holding pattern at this point, just waiting for labor to start or Saturday night to come. I'll post again once the little one has arrived. :)
