1 Week Past Due

Well, I wish that today I was updating saying that we had our baby boy here and he was doing well, but he has decided to be very stubborn and is not showing any signs of being ready to come out.  I went to the doctor this morning and unfortunately am not even close to going into labor, not dialated or effaced at all and my amniotic fluid is getting low.  So, I will go back on Friday and see if things look a little more favorable.  If not, we are faced with the decision of induction or a c-section.  Either way, it looks as if the easy, natural delivery I was hoping for is off the table.  Please be praying for wisdom and discernment over these next couple of days to help us make the best decision for the baby and myself.  Maybe I will get lucky and go into labor before Friday, it's possible, not likely, but possible :)  At this point my biggest concern is choosing the option that will give the baby the best start to a difficult and physically stressful journey as he undergoes surgery and recovery.
