Blake likes it in my belly

My last appointment was on Tuesday...no change again. I'm not having any signs that labor will occur in the near future. :( The doctor said at my next appointment on Monday, which is my due date, assuming I'm still pregnant, that she would hook me up to the monitor. She said we'd check on his size, fluids, etc and see if he's fine to stay in there for a little longer or if we need to schedule an induction. I have a feeling he's going to be just fine in there, so I may push to schedule something. Even though I would prefer for it to happen naturally, it may be time for me to take control! You know I'm not really a patient person.

I found out through a friend that the hospital I'll be delivering at is currently doing construction. Guess which floor...yep, maternity. I could not believe it. Apparently the nursery is boarded up, and from what I hear there is not a temporary nursery. So the option to send Blake there so I can have a little sleep is not going to be possible. I know I'll be excited to be with him but I thought I might take advantage of the extra help while I had the chance! Apparently the actual construction goes on from 9-5 where I'll get to enjoy the pleasant sounds of hammering, scraping, and whatever else goes on with construction. I thought about taking ear plugs but then I wouldn't hear my baby. I hope it's not as bad as I'm imagining. The doctor, when I asked her about it, said, yes it's loud, and there's never a good time to do it, but they are making some nice improvements...lovely.
