Well, Baby Burks is continuing to not cooperate and will not be here for another week or two. From the sound of things its going to be closer to two weeks. I am due two weeks from today on July 2nd so that works, but it is hard to not get bummed when I had been told the 15th, then the 25th, and now they are saying even longer! Apparently the doctors don't know how impatient I am! I am ready to meet our little girl! I am happy though that the doctors have her health and mine in their minds though. Originally, OSF didn't want me going past 39 weeks, but my doctors that are going to be delivering want me to dilate or at least show some signs of labor starting before they induce me. If I have no signs of labor starting and they induce me, Dr. Brinkman said it will be a long, hard, painful labor, which I of course and not into.
I had a sono this past Monday and we were told she weighs 7lbs 1oz give or take a half pound either way. I'm still thinking she's going to be bigger, but I guess we shall see. I have two appointments this coming week, both for non-stress tests. They will check me on Thursday to see if I'm dilating or anything, but my hopes aren't too high!
So, everyone just needs to have some patience (us included) because apparently this little girl will arrive whenever she damn well pleases!
Thanks for checking in! Time to do some rearranging in the nursery! Gotta love nesting!

I am completely impatient. You could try the old "If you don't come out by the time I count to three, you are in BIG trouble. 1.....2..... 2 1/2....." and see if that works :) If all else fails, she must go to time-out and think about what she is doing to everyone!!
Really really really hard to wait it out but I guess it's good in the long run for health reasons. Keep telling yourself that when you are in pain :)
even tho u just delivered, i totally expected u to have pics posted and stories and watnot!!! get with it christy. lol. jk. can't wait to see her!
