Final Update

I completely missed the 37 week picture... sorry! But here is the final set of belly pictures. That's right, because whatever happens you will be here by tomorrow. I have been really struggling with this decision, but as the hours pass it has become too late to change what has been set in motion and everyone seems to think this is the right way to go.

Yesterday morning when the doctor gave me the latest, he requested that I be induced by Wednesday, March 18th, if I don't go into labor before. I have been praying about it ever since and stressing out. I feel like I should not step in and alter what is to happen, but I am also very afraid of going into labor when he is not available and be at the hospital that likely won't have room for me. So now I am scheduled to be there at 6 am. It is still very unsettling to me, but too late to change things. So now I am letting everyone know the plan and still praying that you will decide to come and be a St. Patty's Day baby.

I don't know if it is nerves or what, but my contractions are about every five minutes and it really seems like I am in true early labor... but that doesn't seem to be good enough. I guess we will know more in the next 24 hours.

Here are the final pics... 38 weeks!
