Exciting news and a teeny bummer

First, the good news! I PASSED my super-scary class! WOOHOO! I think very few people realize how truly nervous I was about this (although a lucky few of you got daily emails and/or phone calls ;)), so I am so relieved! I also have to congratulate my friends who passed as well. HOORAY for us! And Marian (and Jason) - thanks for keeping me sane while I waited out those few weeks. You guys are awesome!

Now, the bummer (which is actually not really bad news): I had an "exam" today at the doctor's office and was hoping to be able to schedule an induction. My doctor had told me that if I was dilated any further from my last check (when I was one centimeter and 50% effaced), that we could schedule an induction any time after 39 weeks (next Monday, the 2nd). Unfortunately, there wasn't any change. Although I wasn't surprised, I was slightly disappointed. But of course I realize he just needs to "cook" a little bit longer and so I'm trying to keep that positive spin on it :) I'll go back in one week and hopefully things will have progressed a little bit better! At the worst, I know they won't make me go much past my due date, so we'll have another little munchkin in two weeks! YAY!
