Induction date

So I got a pleasant surprise at my 38-week OB appointment today. The doctor asked, "So, do you want to be induced?" Umm, yeah! So they set it up for next week, Feb. 23 first thing in the morning. So I'm counting on no baby this week so that next Tuesday I can get a good night sleep, wake up, drive to the hospital without having contractions for the whole half an hour drive, get my epidural early, and have my sister all set to watch my kids, and hopefully have a baby by bedtime. And I seriously think I'll need the whole week to get everything ready. Wash the clothes, do deep cleaning that won't happen after the baby is born, sterilize bottles, find a diaper bag, buy a nursing bra, etc, etc, etc. Should be fun!

HoorayCongratsGoodLuck! That last month of pregnancy is the longest year of your life, isn't it? (Of course, your pregnancy has positively flown by for me. Other people's always do.)
