No Progress!

I was SO grumpy last night... sorry I didn't post an update from my doctor's appointment. NO good news, unfortunately. I am STILL only 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced. In a week and a half, I have not progressed at all. :( We saw Dr. F and he seemed to be on this kick of "Oh, almost all first time moms deliver late!" I just wanted to kick him when he said that they usually only let first time moms go a week or TWO past their due dates. Okay, that is NOT okay with me. I still get all riled up about it because my main OB (Dr. N) has told me from the beginning that he'd only let me go 1 week past my due date before inducing me. It's really bothersome that Dr. F threw in that two week comment especially after feeling my belly and exclaiming yet again that "My, you have a big baby there." LOL In the parking lot, I told Josh... "There's NO way I'm waiting until Dec. 19th for this baby!!"

So, anyway... Isaac is doing fine. His heartbeat was at 140 beats per minute and I gained one pound. My blood pressure and all that were normal. I was just really, really hoping for some news that I had progressed. Afterall, I am only 6 days away now from my offical due date. I had an insane craving for chocolate after the appointment and we stopped for brownies at the bakery. Even the brownies didn't do the job. I was a grumpy butt all night long... c'mon already! Let's get this show on the road!

P.S. My next doctor's appointment is next Tuesday, Dec. 6th, with Dr. N (not Dr. F). Cross your fingers I won't even need the appointment, please!

Augh! The suspense is killing me! Another good argument for while I'll never have children, I couldn't possibly wait this long. Patience is not my strong point. I'm so excited! Keep us updated!

I understand what you are feeling. Aleast my Dr.'s were for inducing, but I had no progression at all, so no worries you are on your way. I bet you will not need the next appt.

You need to relax and count your blessings. I think you are losing sight of what is important. Things could be so different right now.

You have a healthy pregnancy, wonderful husband, and people everywhere that love you.

You are very lucky indeed.

Intersting "anonymous" comment... Hmmmm. I never said I wasn't lucky or blessed.... just anxiously awaiting our little boy.
