Labor developments...

...or rather, lack thereof. Leah is now 3 weeks overdue according to most recent ultrasound. It was changed sometime in Dec from Jan 31. Of course it now seems as though this change was a mistake. If we go by the 31, she's only a week late. It's all wonderfully confusing. Leah was scheduled for an induction tomorrow (Wed 2/7), but we wanted to wait another week if this was medically responsible. We went to the doctor this morning and he agreed to postpone the induction another week, contingent on Leah going in for a contraction stress test tomorrow morning. If the results are negative (which is good), we'll wait another week, if they are positive (which is bad), they'll induce straight away. Strange to live in such limbo. We would love to have the extra time in order for nature (and God) to take it's course, as well as having the birth at home, but we are not so fanatical as to risk anything happening to the baby or mom.

On a lighter, but more annoying note, i got to spend $102 on an audio CD for a class at school today... That's of course on top of the five books and the regular tuition that I paid last week for the same class. Higher Education often seems like a gyp.... I always liked Will Hunting's attitude that all we really need, to be educated, is a library card.

I had awesome bread today
