Baby Lukas is still comfortable hanging out inside my belly. I think he's taking this "due date" thing very seriously and literally and doesn't want to arrive early. If he was anything like his mother though, he'd be early. I always arrive early for appointments (on time in my book is 10-15 minutes early, if I'm "on time", I'm late) and I get very nervous if I'm going to be late for something. Mr. Cob isn't as concerned with promptness, so perhaps Lukas is taking after his dad.
We went to the doctor this morning and things are "progressing" but our doctor couldn't really predict when he'll arrive. She said it could be any day now, or not. So I have an appointment to go back next Monday, which will be 3 days after my due date. And at that point we'll talk about options - as in, setting a date to induce, which I really don't want. She will allow me to wait until the following week before insisting on inducing - so 10 days late would put us at Monday, November 15. I really hope he arrives on his own before then!
I did ask how big he's looking and she said if she had to guess, she'd say high 7s or low 8 pounds. But of course, she can only guess. We'll find out soon enough how big he is and what he looks like! And until then, I'll just be waiting and waddling...
