After my 39 week checkup it was quite clear that baby's not ready for this world yet. He hasn't dropped completely yet and there's no progress on the dilation/effacement front. We'll check in next week and see if I meet the minimum dilation/effacement amount then we can talk to the hospital about a 'social induction'. These types of inductions have less priority than a medical induction, which I would be considered at 42 weeks. If the hospital doesn't have many medical inductions and it's a slow day, then it's quite possible we'll be rolling to the hospital at the end of next week to bring this baby into the world!!
A lot can happen in a week as well, so maybe he'll decide to come out on his own to meet his Dad before he has to start chemo. Let's hope he decides to quit turning...he was heading into a posterior position today (back labor), so keep your fingers crossed he quits doing that. At least we know now he's going to be an Aries, just like Grandma!
