Update

So I went to the doctor today and my BP is high!!! It was 130/90 and last week it was 130/80. So the doctor is concerned. I also had protein in my urine. I am now on modified bedrest. I am dialted to a "tight" 2 and 60-70% effaced. (at least some progress). SHe told me to stay on the couch and watch oprah or Ellen, ha ha. Tomorrow was supposed to be my last day at work but she told me I cannott go so I guess I am done with work now for a while!!! HOoray!! She wants me to go to the hospital on Sat and get my bp checked. I asked her is I should bring stuff and hse said I should put it in the car because if my bp is high I will be staying at the hosptal for possible induction. So, It is possible we may be seeing our little girl this weekend!!! For now I will just watch movies and drink lots of water (that is what she said). I will keep everyone posted.

Yea! Not that your blood pressure is high but that baby will be coming soon. I had inductions both times and I really liked it. I know some people don't like them but it worked out great for me. Keep us updated.

YEAH! I hope your sweet baby comes this weekend! I can't wait to see the little one. Totally crappy about the bedrest situation. You and Julie.. that totally stinks! I'm sure you've already figured out that day time television sucks... so watch movies! :) Love ya!

And now you're being induced! We are so excited for you! At least your bedrest didn't last long! Watching Oprah everyday is not as fun as it sounds :). Can't wait to see the pictures! Wish I was there to meet her in person. XOXOOX
