Leave it to a man...

Matt was so focused on his voting experience yesterday that he didn't mention anything in his post about our appointment with the midwife. Where are his priorities?!

Regarding my fall on Monday, the midwife was upset that the OB nurse I spoke with didn't have me come in when I called. The midwife told me that they bring women into Labor and Delivery after a fall to monitor the baby for 6 hours. Since the baby has continued with her regular movement, the midwife was confident that everything is ok with baby and the placenta even though I wasn't monitored.

Unfortunately, they weren't able to schedule us for an induction on the 14th. The earliest they can get me in is at 8:00am on Monday the 17th. That seems so far away! Lord willing, baby will arrive on her own before then. We have a non-stress test scheduled for the 14th to make sure baby is still doing ok at 42 weeks.

I continue to have more and more mobility with my foot. My hope is that I have full functionality before baby arrives. I'd hate to have to wear my wooden shoe while carrying my new baby!

Also, I need to mention that there has been some confusion over Matt's claim that they let us have 3 ballots when we voted yesterday. Bottom line: he lied. Matt has a very strange sense of humor. :)
