still waiting...

We are still here and the baby has decided to be fashionably late...just like a Bluster :) The anticipation is killing us and we have tried every trick in the book. To help us kill time please take part in our gender poll to the right... feel free to share any advice on how to induce labor in the comments below.

Clay and I wish you luck... I hiked Brasstown Bald a week before I had them but it didnt work! I wanted them out bad... The only thing that happened out of that adventure was swollen feet (which I didnt have until then).

Em,
Hang in there. I know you are ready but every day this baby is in there it is gaining strength and clearly the Lord desires it to grow longer inside of you. Do not lose heart. We started labor with a combination of things...membranes being stripped, walking/hiking, ummm, sex and i went into labor with kingston after i vacuumed and mopped our whole house??? you could try that. Really though, it is going to come when it is good and ready. Just don't do castor oil ( I have heard terrible things about that) and don't let them induce. You still have some more time.
The Demop Wingfields love you and are praying for you.
Luv,
Meg

Thanks a bunch girls :) Patience is always a hard thing to learn...especially because you learn patience by waiting on the Lord's timing and not your own! We are just praying for peace in this time of restlessness and for a healthy baby sometime soon!

inducing isn't that bad. just do what works for you and josh and don't let other people tell you what to do :-) induce if you want, get epidural if you want, don't if you don't want. can't wait to meet BABY!!!
