40 weeks & (sigh) still pregnant.

So, my due date was yesterday and Charlotte's still enjoying the warm comforts of being in the womb. I was sooo convinced that she'd be early based upon stories that I heard about first time babies. I guess I should've listen to the other stories that I also heard about first time babies being 2 weeks over due. I guess I was hoping that she wouldn't wait that long in fear that she'll be as big as I was when I was born (about 10 days late at 9.9 lbs). But like my Dr. said it isn't an exact science and there are no guarantees. I guess I'm feeling a little anxious because I'm getting more and more uncomfortable by the day from really bad lower back pain to trying to find a good sitting and sleeping position. However, I'm really grateful that her heartbeat remains strong & she's still moving around more so than ever.

I have another appointment tomorrow so we'll see what the Dr. says. Whether we induce next week or she comes on her own, at least I know that I'll have a sweet little (or big) baby in my arms in less than 2 weeks. ; )
