Pregnancy Update Baby #2 – 38 Weeks

I did NOT think I would be still pregnant past 38 weeks. I have been 3 centimeters dilated for 3 weeks and apparently that means nothing, LOL. I’m still feeling really well and excited to meet baby boy.

I scheduled an induction date for Monday, October 2 so no matter what I know I will meet Logan within the next 4 days. 🙂
