No News Yet!

Eric & I went to the doctor on Tuesday which was about 4-5 days past my due date, and he checked all the vitals. We even got to see another ultra sound to make sure she was doing okay. And the great news is, that she is still healthy! She still has a little room to move and her environment is in perfect condition. She's happy in her current home. So there is no need to think of inducing or anything like that, which is good. I just hope that it happens soon so that I don't have to worry about any type of procedures or anything unnatural. We've heard of and read about some things that I can try to do to get labor started like drinking certain herbal teas and massaging accupressure points on my ankles...so we are doing the best we can. The truth is, we just can't rush fate but we are twiddling our thumbs while destiny makes her path. The unfortunate thing in all this is that my aches and pains have totally increased, the discomfort of being 41 weeks pregnant is unreal. I keep trying to remind myself that the average first time mom is a week past their due date... amazing that we can handle this.
