Due Date

So it appears unless a miracle happens that we won't have another due date baby! Tomorrow is the longest I have been pregnant :). That is kind of cool to say actually. It's odd..I could be pregnant until July 18th. I haven't talked induction yet with our midwife, but that is about the cutoff they let you..just a few days shy of 42 weeks.

Technically speaking, we had three due dates. The first based on our last menstrual cycle was July 3rd, but I know I have longer cycles then most and I know when I ovulated by about a day or two and July 3rd was too soon. The second due date we were given based on a growth ultrasound was JULY 8TH! Then a week later, due to complications, I had to have another ultrasound that said July 6th. With all three dates, we compromised on July 6th. I am actually hoping that they move my due date tomorrow to July 8th so I get two extra days until induction. I do NOT want to be induced and I'm not 'over' this pregnancy yet. I still feel great and am active still, so while I want to meet my little boy, I am not really in a rush to induce. I believe firmly that he will come when he wants to come. We have no complications, so I would wait as long as he wants to.

Thanks everyone for your calls today (I have received a lot). It is so nice to have so many people thinking about us! Most woman get annoyed, but I'm not. I love that I have so many people that love me enough to call me to see how I am doing!

But with all that said, hopefully my next post will be about the baby and not about being pregnant :).
