38 Weeks...

Hello Everyone,

Seems that our little baby is oh so comfy inside. She has not yet engaged herself into position. She is "floating", which means that until she engages, I cannot be induced. So, we have one more week to see if this happens.
Slightly frustrating for mom, considering that I had the 18th as my "I am not going farther than this day" date. But, if baby is not ready, then she is not ready. Technically, I still have two more weeks to go. Doc says it isn't safe to induce a baby not engaged, and I certainly don't want to do something unsafe.
On another note, today is my last day of school. Totally mixed feelings about this. I am going to miss my class terribly! They are all so wonderful! Teaching at Redeemer has really helped me through some difficult times these past two years. We have an ice cream party planned which should be lots of fun! We also have a wonderful sub whom the children seem to really like. She has been with us this week. And of course, my assistant is fabulous! There is nothing I can say about her that would do justice! I know the kids will be in good hands and it is only for a few weeks, but still, they are my babies!
So, next weeks agenda: treadmill, clean, treadmill, have lunch with Meagan, treadmill, do baby wash, treadmill, clean some more... If you have any suggestions on getting the baby engaged, let me know! Both Meagan and Louis were engaged early on, so this is new to me!
Well, I go again to the doctor on Thurday and we will see what he says. I need to keep telling myself, there is a reason she is not ready. Be patient!
