How is everyone?

I've been unable to gain access to the internet for 2 weeks now, due to moving into our new house and waiting on DSL to be installed. I'm at my mother's house right now trying to catch up. I thought I would have missed a bunch, but there hasn't been much new posting in this forum like I would have expected.

I am 37 weeks and beyond miserable. My jerk of an OB is still insisting on only inducing at 38 weeks IF I am dialating. At my last appointment last Monday was the first time he checked, and I was at 1 cm, but the baby is VERY high. He won't induce unless I progress to 3 or 4 by next Wednesday, which I seriously doubt b/c I can tell the baby is still high. I have had 2 non-stress tests, and he says the baby is perfectly fine in there, so leave her there. Well, guess what, schmuck... I'm not anywhere near fine out here! This frustrates me soooo much! The baby is now considered term, and I'm miserable, so GET HER OUT... AAAAAHHH!!!

All day and all night I lie awake praying to God and BEGGING to go into labor each night but always NOTHING! I am already experiencing the same symptoms I experienced with my severe PPD after my son was born, and I'm not even post-partum yet! This is NOT a good sign.

Anyway, just wanted to catch up with everyone and see how everyone else is doing.

I totally agree about being sick of people saying, "Oh you're not far along now." and totally agree that each minute of each day is a friggin' ETERNITY! I go to my OB tomorrow, which I dread b/c I always get my hopes up he will give me good news, but then all he ever does is say, "Nope, not ready yet." When they did the u/s at 35 weeks, my baby was measuring at 41 weeks... what in the heck is he waiting for??? GRRR!
