Good News!

I went to Doctor today because I now go every Monday and he had some good news. I am progressing some, dialated to a 3 and 50% effaced. So that is good. I am technically due on the 21 and he is going out of town the 17-21. I got an ultrasound today to see how big they think he is and he is already 7 1/2 pounds. He asked when I wanted to be induced if I didn't have him soon. At first I thought well I should let him go the whole time and wait until the 22 but after I found out that he is already plenty big, we decided that next Monday was a good day if there is room in the hospital and if I don't have him before then. So I will hopefully only have, at the most, 1 week left. I am so excited, it is kind of crazy how great my doctor is and will do whatever I want, within reason of course. There is a chance he may induce me even earlier. My platlet count has been dropping, he said if drops too much more he will have to induce me sooner. I am going to get my blood drawn today or tomorrow, so who knows maybe he'll come earlier.
