March 5th is the day!!! WooHoo!!!!!!

I can't believe it! We have an induction day! At my appointment last Tuesday, the doctor told me he wants to induce me March 5th. By that time, the baby should be about 8 pounds! I was 1 cm dialated and a little effaced (even though I'm not sure how much). The doctor said that I was not exactly at the starting line of labor, but in the arena! I have one final appointment on Feb 27th! I can't believe that I am so close to being done with this pregnancy! Wow, only one more appointment. It is hard to believe. Oh, I am no longer on the Procardia (YEA!!), but I have been advised to still take it easy. I've been home now 31 days and am really getting bored! I haven't been to work in over a month, and it just feels strange. I'm trying to enjoy my time off before the baby comes, but I am getting a little antsy. Physically, the last weeks of pregnancy are getting pretty tough. I am getting very big and to the point that bending over to do something like tie my shoes is getting very difficult. Walking takes a lot out of me, and I feel as if I weigh 1,000 pounds! Sleeping is not very fun as I am getting small amounts of sleep because I can't get comfortable, have to get up to go to the bathroom a million times a night, or have 3 pillows propping me up because of heartburn. I can't wait until I will be able to sleep on my tummy again! The waiting of going into labor has been kinda hard. I'm not a very patient person, so I think this is God's lesson to me. I am still pretty nervous about the whole labor and delivery thing, but I do have a bag packed ready to go to the hospital, just in case. This baby may be coming before March 5th! You never know!
