Okay... So, today was a busy day. I had a non-stress test and midwife appointment at 9am. I made Del stop at Burger King on the way there, because I really wanted some breakfast food. So, I ate that on the way to the doctor. It's a good thing I did, because I only ended up having to sit hooked up to the monitor for about 15-20 minutes. He was moving all over the place... thanks to the good food! 
His heartrate and everything looked great, so we passed with flying colors! 
The midwife wasn't going to check my cervix, but I asked her to. Unfortunately, nothing has changed. 
I still have a very, very soft cervix, still only 80% effaced, and still not dilated! 
I went down to the lab and it was so packed, the wait was an hour. So, I told Delvin I wasn't sitting there and waiting for an hour. We ended up going to Ollie's, and the mall and buying a few things for Luke. I've been spoiling him like crazy lately!
I think I feel guilty for having to go into the hospital or something. 
Anyway, we wasted about four hours between Ollie's and the mall, and then went back to the lab. I got in and out within 15 minutes, so that was good. Then we came home. In reality, I think I was just trying to waste a good portion of the day, because I knew that if I came home and sat around all day, it would feel like forever!! So, now we're home and I'm getting all of my last minute hospital items packed in my bag. I need to make a list of where Luke's things are (diapers, wipes, cups, plates, clothes, shoes, etc.) for my dad for tomorrow. He is going to come over and watch Luke while Delvin and I are at the hospital. Then he'll bring him by after bubs is out!
So... Tomorrow is THE BIG DAY!!
We have to leave here at 11:30am, to be to the hospital by noon. My c-section is scheduled for 2pm, and LO should be here by 2:45-3pm at the latest!! 
At this point, I just can't wait to meet him, recover, and come back home! I'm so excited! I am bringing the laptop to the hospital (still hoping and praying they have free Wifi). So, I will be able to post pictures tomorrow evening. If not, then I'll definitely get pictures up the day I get home. I just don't know when that will be yet.
Michele - Before I forget, is there anything you can think of that maybe I hadn't, to throw in my bag for a c-section delivery. I planned my bag around a regular delivery. Well, since that didn't happen, I hope I'm not going to forget anything.

And it didn't hurt like all of the horror stories i was told! I know it doesn't work for a lot of ppl but given my progress and the fact that im a week overdue, SURELY something will result? 
i REALLY hope that is from an impending labor and not my raviolis that i had for dinner 
I hope this means something is going to happen TONIGHT! 
) so hopefully he arrives by then!!!! Hopefully i go into labor by tomorrow and have him bc i dont want to be in the hospital while my folks are in 
it is now day 8 and there isn't a twinge in sight. How can i have progressed so much and yet not be in labor yet? 
what is wrong with me? Im starting to think there IS something wrong with me...ugh...so much for being an August Mommy 
Good luck at your GD test tomorrow. I think the worst part is drinking that orange sugar crap in a couple minutes! LOL
Can't wait!!!!!
