End in Sight Looking Dim...

So much for my last post and thinking there's an end in sight. That's looking bleaker with each passing day. Dr. appt yesterday basically said I'm about where I've been for the past few weeks which was a little depressing and I had to set up another appointment for my actual due date at which time I was told we could set up an induction date. I guess that's the only promising thing at this point. I've apparently already been raising a stubborn kid (wonder where he gets that from!) and I can only hope he proves me wrong. One thing I have to say is I have more respect for pregnant women who go all the way to or even past their due date. I have no idea how they can do it and handle all the uncomfortableness that comes along with it. I swear - there should be something on the market that can help women at this stage. If I'm able to come up with something that kick starts labor (only after 38 weeks of course so I don't get sued), I would be a millionaire! I'll let you know how my scheming goes the next few days before I hold my dr's office hostage on wednesday (I figured I can try to force them to let me have the boy that day instead of going past my due date).
