My 37 week Dr. appt was pretty uneventful.. Still 1cm dilated, but 70% effaced now.. She said the baby was "really low".. whatever that means.. BP and urine all good, even though I still feel generally crappy.. I guess this Dr wasn't aware of our induction plans at first, she seemed sort of caught off guard by it.. but after the internal, she seemed all right with it.. but she did say that the people at the hospital might try to "Scare" me.. and tell me that induction was not going to work and I'd end up with a c-section.. So she didn't make it sound all quite as easy as last weeks Dr. I have to call tomorrow to get it officially scheduled.. And then my last NST/BPP appt is tuesday, and my last Dr's office visit is Thursday. My MIL "volunteered" to come to my NST appt on Tuesday.. I am really none too thrilled with the idea, but I did let my mom come to one, so I guess its only fair.. But now for some reason I am scared that something is going to be not right and I'm gonna end up being admitted or something and she will be there for all of it and it will be a big nightmare..
We went to Babies R Us after my appt on Friday.. I got the Itzbeen baby timer, a hand breast pump (I am going to get an electric one after the baby comes, but I am waiting on it for the moment), a method baby wash set, some onesies and t-shirts, burp cloths, spoons, bowls and other random stuff.. And I want to go to Baby's Sweet Beginnings this week and get a couple of swaddle blankets, maybe get a nursing stool and a couple other things.. I will probably eventually buy my breastpump from her too..
My mom is coming over again tomorrow to help me with some stuff around the house.. MIL wants to come over too.. but I really feel so much less comfortable with her doing stuff than my mom.. She's just so much more pushy..

Hey. I'll be honest, I am anti-induction unless it's medically necessary, but I'll try to keep an open mind. I've been wondering, how come your Dr. wants to induce?
