9 months



Today I hit my 9th month, which seemed like it took forever from the 8th month. The last time that I was at the Dr. she told me that if I wanted to be induced at 38-39 weeks that she would go ahead and do that. She said I've had such a healthy and easy pregnancy that there shouldn't be a problem. Not to mention that he was already 5 pounds and hit feet are huge. He was already head down as well.  Seriously, no one believes me when I say that I think he's going to be big! I think since I still look pretty compact ( to some people...not myself) that they assume I'm going to have a little 5 pound baby. In all reality I was only hoping for a 6.5 pounder. I go back next week and she'll start checking to see if my cervix has started thinning out...fingers crosses... and if so then we can start planning an induction. I know that there's gonna be a few haters out there that think induction isn't the way to go but this is my take, if I can knock 2 weeks off for 24 or so hours of pain then so be it. Keep in mind that as long as he's big enough and healthy then the Dr. will say okay. Meanwhile I've started taking my primrose oil (per Dr's ok) and raspberry leaf tea. 
Eric and I got Ford's furniture in the other day so everything is done except his crib, and that came to the store this week. Since Eric has been on tour and wont be home until Sunday, we are waiting to pick it up then. I washed all his clothes this last week, put them away and there are just a few items left for me to buy. I'm sure I'll get to them this next week or so...? 
Anyways, here is my 9th month picture!
