I have officially transitioned from the bed to the couch for sleeping purposes. Last night was the second time, and I definitely notice a difference in the physical quality of my sleep. I do miss my bed though - VERY MUCH. Michael is such a sweetheart. He made a pallet on the floor next to me and refuses to sleep in the bed unless I'm there with him. And, since I've slept better on the couch, he thinks we should continue this until the baby arrives. I love my man.
I am officially full-term today! Eek! And, today was the first time in three weeks that I've had no progress. I am still 70% effaced and 2cm dilated - not a bad thing. I am just ready to meet our little booger! He said we can talk about induction dates next week. Michael and I can pick any day between the 27th and August 3rd to have our baby (if I don't go into labor on my own). I was kind of thinking maybe we could go in on Sunday, July 31st; and then baby can decide if he or she will squeeze out on the last day of July or the first day of August. Decisions, decisions. ;) The more I read about the months and days, the more I lean towards August 1st. In all honesty, I hope the baby decides to come on its own and not make me pick a birthday!
In the meantime, I just sit and wait!
I don't care when the birthday is. I'm just excited about the baby being here soon. You have made me proud by the way you have handled the whole pregnancy. And I don't mind sleeping on the floor. If we have to run, I want to be right there... Just don't step on me when you make your nightly pee pee runs in the dark!
