Due date

So, todays my due date. I don't take much stock in due dates especially since Thomas was 10 days "late," but there is something to be said about it changing you mentally as it approaches. I am starting to get antsy and annoyed that I haven't had the baby yet although I still feel great and really should just be enjoying this quite time. We are trying our best but I do feel like it's just a waiting game. I also really don't want to get induced so it's more the fear of that weighing me down. Fingers crossed though that it will happen. If not, I have a tentative induction date of Feb. 8th because that's when my doctor is on call and I would prefer to deliver with her, especially if it's an induction. So that's probably as far as I will go. I have another acupuncture session scheduled for the end of this week in case nothing happens so we will see. I honestly feel like it's not going to happen anytime soon, and since my back pain has gone away, I feel like I could be pregnant another month!!! Haha. I know that at least won't happen. Thomas is understanding more and more that there is going to be a baby coming home. He knows that his Uncle Doug is going to stay with him when we have to go to the hospital. He also keeps crawling around imitating a baby every night and saying that he is going to teach the baby to crawl. Today is Doug's birthday, a few days ago was Shem's Mom's birthday, and Shem's birthday is this Thursday. So no matter when this little guy is born this week, he will be in good company.
