Another 3 mile walk on the boulevard today! I sure like that route.

41 weeks tomorrow.  We decided to wait till the weekend to re-evaluate what to do.  We could have gone in tonight to get things started, but I figured every woman who has been "started" against their wishes would have said I was crazy to go in willingly even though my blood pressure is fine, the amniotic fluid is fine, she passed her non-stress test with flying colors today, I'm not uncomfortable, I'm changing on my own (very slowly)....soooo.....we canceled the induction appointment tonight and we'll just keep waiting.  My doctor won't go more than next Thursday (42 weeks), but I sure hope she comes on her own before then!  I don't think I'm OK with waiting that long.  I'm scared of that darn pitocin though. :)  I'm sad tonight knowing I could have just gone in and probably had a baby in my arms tomorrow.  Trying to be patient and wade through the waiting and boredom!!

Fear the Pitocin! Of course, who am I to say anything? KristyAnn's experience with Pitocin was good, though. She didn't mind being induced. We are keeping our fingers crossed for you that it all happens soon!

Well that is the first person I've heard say something other than bad about The Pitocin! Keep those stories coming! :) BTW, I couldn't believe it when I saw that you biked to work! There are some crazy hills going up there... Would like to see the elevation chart on that one.

The last bit was a bit steep. I've posted the Garmin data now.
