Mark came with me to the doctor's appointment today. We knew that today a decision would have to be made on induction, and we decided that it made more sense for him to be there with me when discussing it with the doctor. Plus he wanted to see the baby on the ultrasound.
The ultrasound went really well. The baby is healthy, and the amniotic fluid levels look fine. Currently the baby is measuring 9lb 13oz, of course that's just a guesstimate and size predictions are notoriously wrong. The diameter of the baby's head is also measuring off the charts. Which I put a little more faith in, because of the way it is measured. It makes me very grateful that the baby's skull is not fused together yet.
Next we talked to the doctor. He asked when we wanted to induce, we said Monday, he said great. He checked my cervix and I am still at 1 and 1/2 cm. So much for all that walking last weekend. It looks like unless this baby figures out that is time to head out into the world, then Baby Gator will be joining the rest of us on Monday.
