GBS Update

So here is an update on my Growing Belly Syndrome.
As it turns out, I am getting induced on Monday the 20th at 7:30 am. That is is THREE days! Man am I a wreck!
Just so you are assured-there isn't anything wrong with the baby or me. My doctor is just really nice.
I went to my doctor apt this last Tues and I was asked how I was doing. Other than feeling very round- I was hanging in there. I subtly mentioned that I was hoping for action this week because it would be nice to have her at least a week before Halloween.
She proceeds to ask me how old my other child was and I told her he was 8. So she figured that he was hoping for action more of this week than I was.
So she tells me that if I have to come back to my next week's apt (if I didn't go into labor naturally), she would see if she could get me in Labor and Delivery for an induction. But there was no guarantee because it was not medically needed and not to get upset if they have no room for me or if they say no.
So needless to say I was finishing up my apt and gathering my things getting ready to head out to the apt desk to make my apt for next week when she comes back into my room telling me she set me up at L&D for Monday at 7:30 and there is no need to make an apt for next week because I won't be coming back there!!!
SO...
I am set up to have this little girl on Monday the 20th at 7:30.
In a bit a shock still- I'm recklessly trying to make sure the house is organized and ready for our new addition. I feel like i have so much to do still and only three days to get it done!
And then the real work begins...
