Well, I'm still here 6d post due date. I have my next OB appointment tomorrow where they'll do a fetal stress test to check on Baby O. I think he's fine though. Moving around quite a bit still, though there doesn't seem to be much room in there left for him. You'd think he'd want to come out.
I can't actually complain too much though because I feel pretty good overall. I don't have any back pain, my hips just get sore from sleeping on my side, so I have to shift quite a bit at night.
For those of you wondering, it is not safe for me to be induced because I've had a previous c-section. If I do go into labor naturally, they could potentially give pitocin to speed things along if needed. However, I cannot receive any cervical ripening agents as that would increase my risk for uterine rupture.
If Owen decides he doesn't want to come out on his own, I am scheduled for a c-section on Monday at 2pm. So, either way, we'll have him by then for sure.

You are always in our thoughts!
Ah, little stinker!!! We're thinking of you! Can't wait for the birth announcement post! Best wishes for a smooth delivery!
I wanted to try for a VBAC after my first baby, but my blood pressure wasn't cooperating and I didn't have the patience to wait any past my due date. God's peace and a healthy delivery to you - however it comes. The outcome is still the same: a beautiful baby. Love you!
