So we went to the another appt today. We were scheduled for another sonogram because my uterus is not growing and Dias was worried about Emily's weight. Well we found out that Emily now weighs 7 lbs and 8oz and is 20" long. That is huge!!! If she goes to 40 week she will probably be 8 lbs!!! We are not going past 4o weeks and Dias agrees. I asked her to do whatever she had to do to encourage contractions so she "stripped the membranes". Let's just say that it was extremely uncomfortable and unexpected. But if she had warned me I probably would have chickened out. So technically I've been induced and we are just waiting to see if anything happens. I've also read that pineapple and raspberry tea works to help contractions.
Oh the other funny thing....when my blood pressure was first taken after realizing how big Emily is it skyrocketted. I had to sit for a while before they took it again and could record it.
In the mean time it is walk, walk, walk, and maybe run!
