D- Day today!

Well, today is my technical due date and still nothing! I can't believe we still don't have Baby Erfurth here. I was sure, almost positive, we would have this baby early like the other two. I guess it just goes to show that each child is different.

I am very anxious for this baby to arrive and wake up every morning hoping that that day will be the day but still nothing. I have tried everything---licorice, spicy food, rasberry tea, pineapple, walking tons, running, playing just dance on the wii, shoveling, lifting kids daily--nothing! I am 3cm dilated and had one false alarm last week that sent me to the hospital but that is it. We have been preparing for the arrival for a while, but since we thought I would be early, we have been preparing and living day by day for about 3 weeks now. My Dr. said that I am very healthy, the baby is healthy, I haven't gotten too too big--although I feel HUGE and have gained five pounds since last weeks appointment---, and I don't appear to be in any pain so he is taking me to 41 weeks which is next Friday. I do have to say that I have been feeling really good up until yesterday. I woke up and couldn't walk---I now waddle-- and I can't open my legs to move or stand up and have to be rolled off the couch. I am in pain now and just want this to be over with and have our little girl here.
Any day now, I hope :)
So I guess patience is my last resort :)
