I know I was saying that I wasn't getting my hopes up for yesterday's doctor's appointment, but I really did. I had so much trouble sleeping the two nights before because I had contractions and cramping, so I thought for sure there'd be some change. But no, no change at all. I was so incredibly frustrated. Then when I got back to work, I spent the entire day fixing things that other people had screwed up, and it took me hours to settle down and be not pissed. It was just a very bad day.
My mom had spent the day in Ames going to garage sales, so she had found some great deals on baby stuff and brought them down to me after work. That was a nice boost to the spirits, but she's coming down with a cold and so was worried about passing that along. I'm not too worried, though, because I think maybe the pregnancy side-effects of my head being so mucus-y will keep any germs from getting through anyway. Travis slept in the guest bed the other night because I was snoring so loud.
Anyway, I guess I'm resigning myself to being pregnant for a lot longer, finishing off my last week of work, and trying to relax as much as I can in the process. I'm not going to do miles of walking to try to get contractions going, because I'll just wear myself out. Since my body won't cooperate at all, I'll just wait for being induced, which my doctor says won't be "much" past 41 weeks. That's October 9 or later. *sigh*

Still only 10 days and you'll have a little baby :) Ok, I have no clue how you're feeling having never been there myself; just trying to give you a little encouragement.
Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy days!!
