{waiting on the world to change...}

So it seems like Tuesdays are the night when I'm able to get the li'l guy asleep at a decent recent hour and sit down to blog a bit. It's been a week since my last doctor's visit as well and still, no baby. Just two more days until my "official" due date - Thursday, January 31st - and I'm growing more anxious by the minute. The doctors last words were, if you haven't delivered by Thursday, then we'll schedule you for an induction. And thus...the waiting began....I waited....and waited....

....and waited. Who knew a week could feel SO long?! I'm honestly amazed I have made it this far with my pregnancy, given that Zachary was born 2 weeks early (induced due to high blood pressure).  Even with my diagnosis of gestational diabetes and Jeremiah being in the breech position for approximately a week or more...I was able to mediate those issues and ideally, avoid a scheduled C-section as well. And now...we wait.

It's actually been quite an ironic situation...normally, I'm not 100% prepared for each teaching day nor am I as meticulously organized as I'd like to be. But with this pregnancy, I managed to compile a decent long-term sub file and stay planned far enough ahead that I've been able to utilize such plans since I'm still going into school to teach (until I deliver).  More so - it seems as the more prepared I've gotten, the more likely Jeremiah is prolonging his birth. I'm sure if it were the other way around, he'd have popped out by now...right?

So...that's me. Just waiting. And trying to kill time in any which way possible...blogging, catching up on some DVR'd cooking shows, looking online for our next home (Spring/Summer 2013!) and whatnot. I just hope everyone else is enjoy a stress/worry-free evening! :)
