The Final Countdown 0 Days to Baby Semmy

Well today is what was first due date, then there was the slight change to September 24th, and then back to today.  Where is this baby?  I am now starting to get a little anxious.  I am adamant about not getting induced until it is necesarry as I want to do everything I can to avoid a c-section.  I am not dilated, effaced, thinned out or anything at this point which is what is frustrating.  I know this is not an indicator of when you are going to go, but at least then you are on your way to if you need to be induced you can.  Even if I wanted to be induced right now, my doctors are onboard with me in the sense that my c-section rate will be even higher since my cervix is not ready.  I thought if there was a change today that if we didn't have the baby over the weekend, then Monday would be the day.  The latest they will let me go is next Weds. which is reassuring, but I am just hoping for a change.  I could have sworn that this baby would come early.  I have been so active between working out regularly, walking, running around for work, and maintaining my normal energy level that it just made sense.  Obviously I was wrong, and Nicole's planning is just not working out.  A part of me is wondering that because I am not 100% relaxed yet, that I am causing the delay.  I have been working hard to wrap things up this week for work, while trying to negotiate a buy in for one of our centers.  While it is distracting me from the waiting game, it is of course getting me fired up.  I love negotiating and going through the process but no matter which was you slice it there is some adrenaline there that is not the same as relaxing. 

So the waiting continues,  I am praying Baby Semmy will greet us this weekend.  I am officially the last one of the 8 people we know having babies this month to go.  I am off to walk, stairmaster, and bounce on a birthing ball.  I appreciate everyones thoughts and prayers!
