Well, I finally reached week 40. Today is my due date, but no baby yet. I had an appointment with my doctor today. The baby is still active, the heartbeat was in the 140's, and is still headdown. I'm dilated about a centimeter, but not a full centimeter, and I'm about 50% effaced. I've lost a couple of pounds, which is a little confusing since I'm eating about the same. Oh well. The doctor set me up for an induction on Monday, June 25 at 6:30 a.m. But, he and especially I are hoping things will take a more natural course before then. He wants me to come back in about a week for another checkup. He wants to run a Fetal Stress Test and check out the amniotic fluid. I'm sure this is just to make sure the baby is still within a healthy environment. I guess we'll just have to wait and see and be patient, which isn't always easy for me. I'll try my best, but keep Lee in your thoughts. :)

Booo - I wanted to meet my new niece or nephew by now. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to be more patient. You and Lee hang in there, Jennie. Love you!
