Doctor Update:


So, I went back to the doctor today. I am now dilated to a 2 and 75-80% effaced. My due date is the 23rd, and my doctor said he would induce me on the 18th if I wanted him to, or wait until after my due date on the 25th... tempting. We will see in the next couple of days.

Love the nursery, will you come do Carly's room in a year or two when she gets a big bed? I'm thinking lavender.
i personally think you should get induced on the 18th if you don't have your baby by then. I'm sorry, but the last 2 weeks of pregnancy are so miserable. I try not to tell any pregnant woman but it's true. If not for you, do it for Chad. :)

You are an awesome nurse, Emily. Thanks so much for your care of our little Emily in the PICU and we look forward to seeing some pictures of your little one in the very near future. :) Take care, and don't be a stranger! -- Nate, Diana, Annabelle, & Emily

That is so exciting Em! Oh, I remember that feeling! I was induced before Cooper's due date b/c I was progressing like you and I LOVED it! I guess I don't really know what to compare it to, but it was a dream. I didn't feel a thing and was able to enjoy the whole experience! Good luck with everything. I can't wait to see him. He will be so dang cute.

ok first of all - your nursery looks awesome! second, parker is a darling name! third....do everything you can to get that baby out asap! that last week really lasts forever. when i had my first I was a day late and it was seriously the longest day of my life! my second came a week early on his own and they induced #3 almost 2 weeks early because I was favorable and ryan was going to be out of town at an away game for the weekend and I didn't want him to miss the delivery. if you're favorable I say get those membranes stripped....it put me into labor within 2 days every time! good luck! cant wait to see photos of baby parker!

Congratulations guys!! Parker is so precious--I love him! I miss the newborn stage so much. Nothing brings heaven to your home like a baby fresh from Heavenly Father. He is just perfect. Thanks for the pictures.
