Well we went to the Doctor today and we are still waiting. I saw the new doctor today and she said that she doesn't consider induction until about 41 weeks and I was only 39 weeks and one day today. That is the other thing, they can't seem to make up their minds when my due date is. They are now saying that officially it is the 8th but that it could be anywhere from the 2nd to the 10th! I mentionted how uncomforatable I have gotten and how now my hands are swelling in addition to my feet and ankles and she said that if she is the one that sees me next week then we may talk about inducing. However, I found out that my next appointment (10-9-08) will be with one of the other Doctors (which I love this one) and it is Dr. Obekwe which is the one that I saw last week and she is also the one that said that she considers induction at 40 weeks which is where I will be next week. Let's keep our fingers crossed that Jayci will make this decision for us and she will come on her own in the next 3-4 days. I started my maternity leave this past Monday as it was getting harder and harder to go to work so I am really hoping that she does comes soon so I can get as much time with her while I am out as I can. I did decide to take the full 12 weeks for my leave so I am not scheduled to go back until December 29th. Well that is about it for now....love to everyone!

Thanks for keeping us updated, we were worried. I look forward to the arrival and hope we can spend some time together when (and after) the little princess makes her arrival. If you need anything let us know. Love you guys!
You know we love you all and can't wait to hear about her arrival. Continue to take care of yourself and try not to worry too much about whether it is today or tommrow or next week, she will be here when it is right. Although I know you are ready. It will all be great soon.
Love, Lee and Karen
