40 weeks

Lola...where are you? Everyday I think she is coming, I get contractions about 3, then they get stronger through the evening...but then after the sleeping pill I take about 10 they go away and I fall asleep. Don't get me wrong I am happy every morning when I wake up to realize that I got another good night sleep, but one day will she ever be ready? I have been dilated to a 3 for the past week and although last week the Dr. told me he thought I would have her by this last Monday or Tuesday at the latest, today he told me that maybe I can hold out until this next Monday. I guess that is all I needed to hear to be able to enjoy this next weekend ahead of me. I did another grocery store run today so that I could have some food in my house, and I am planning another date night for Tyson and I tomorrow. I thought last weekend was sure to be the last one for awhile. I actually feel pretty good so I guess I can't complain. The last 2 weeks I have lost a pound each week so I guess I can hold out a few more days before I have to give up the ice cream and whatever else it is I feel like at the moment.
My next post will definitely be of baby Magnolia so lets hope I don't have to wait another week for that one!
