At my doctor's appointment on Friday, we finally talked induction. If baby girl does not evacuate the premises by Thursday, she will be forced out :) Jake's labor was induced, and all went well, so (knock on wood) I am comfortable with the idea. Would I like to go into labor naturally? Sure, but at this rate, I could be waiting until March for her to get out. No thanks.
A lot of people keep telling me they think baby will show up on my birthday (Tuesday, 2/23) but I'm convinced she's stubborn and enjoying her current surroundings too much to leave of her own accord. Selfishly, I don't want baby showing up on my birthday. I don't want to have to share it. I don't want HER to have to share her birthday with her mother either. And I really don't want to spend my own birthday in labor.
So I am fine with being induced on Thursday. It's a light at the end of the tunnel - literally and figuratively! It's a solid date. I like definites, I like solid plans, I like knowing instead of guessing.

Ha - you and me both! :)
Glad you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. :) And, hopefully you'll get your wish and have her the day before or after your birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
