Induction Scheduled!

Well, after having yet another round of tests that show Baby Daily doing just fine (and the fact that my cervix is still very "unfavorable") we have come to the conclusion that he is very content where he is. All signs indicate that he will continue to hang out for quite a while!

We talked with the doctor at length and have scheduled an induction for January 10th, which is the first day after the due date that my regular doctor is on call. We all agree that since my body is showing no signs of being ready, my sugars are well controlled, and Baby Daily is in the 50th percentile for growth, there simply isn't a need to take him out early. Going until the 10th gives us a good balance of waiting for him to come on his own vs. the risks that come with the diabetes. Of course, I still have to go in 2x next week for NSTs, but chances are they will be completely normal.

I am getting tired of going to the doctor all the time. At least there is an end in sight...only 12 more days!
