The never ending pregnancy

I'm STILL 1 cm dilated and that's it.  STILL!!!!  So, the doctor said that he could still induce me tomorrow but that it still wasn't considered a favorable induction.  Meaning that the hospital still looked at it as a risky induction.  So he said that he could also induce me Monday.  Which would make me 40 weeks and 5 days pregnant.  He said that with this being my third child that he didn't think I would have too much of a problem being induced tomorrow but that he couldn't guarantee it either.  So the doctor gave Kent and I some time to talk it over and I just didn't feel like it was worth the risk doing it tomorrow.  So Monday it is.  That is the last possible day that I will be pregnant.  We have to be at the hospital at 5:30am and they will start the induction then.  I'm still hoping to go on my own before then though, but right now it's just not looking like I will.  I've got one stubborn little boy in my belly.  Either that or he is too scared to come out and meet the youngins he has been hearing all these months.  Oh and I gained 4 pounds in a week.. lol.  I was enjoying what I thought was my last week of pregnancy.. and well.. it showed.  LOL
