Well, my body is no good at having babies.... I can get pregnant, have virtually no problems during my pregnancies, but when its time for the baby to come out, it just doesn't happen. Oh well, I suppose if I'm bad at any part of the whole baby process, this is the best part to be bad at.
I had a dr appointment this morning that went pretty well. He stripped my membranes at my last appointment, which didn't do anything (obviously) and did it again this morning. I had pretty consistent contractions all weekend (about 5 min apart for several hours) but they weren't getting more intense. At my appointment, my doctor said that Lucy has definitely dropped more (I could have told him that...) and I am more effaced and a bit more dialated. I told him that I am ready to have the baby as soon as he is willing to induce me..... so..... we scheduled my induction for Thursday!! I'm so glad!! I have been having an extremely difficult last couple of weeks, but it's so nice to have the date set so I know what to expect. I suppose it's possible to go into labor before then, but I'm not going to worry about that right now.
I'm sorry about not posting pics, I couldn't find my camera... pregnancy mushy brain I suppose. But Ben found it, so I'll make sure to get caught up before I have the baby.
Thanks for all of your love and prayers. We will keep you posted!

I can't wait!!! :)
You are not bad at any of the process...neither is anyone else...just stinks all the way around. Pregnancy is rough and no one gets out of it easy. I don't know- I think going overdue would be pretty rough. I feel so bad for you. I don't do pregnancy as gracefully as others I know so I think you are a trooper! Hang in there. Hooray for thursday! Sweet baby Lucy is almost here! I wish I could be there to love her and take care of you!
Oh that is awful that you're overdue and have to wait still. Hang in there just a little while more. I wouldn't say you're bad at it, in fact you must be really good at the pregnancy thing because she is just so comfortable in your tummy that she doesn't want to come out yet. We're excited for you on Thursday, and hope everything goes well for you and the baby!
