24 hours

In less than 24 hours it will be our official due date for Dylan...we have a appointment tomorrow afternoon....tonight has been the first evening that I actually I am feeling some real progress toward delivery...who knows it might just be wishful thinking....I guess only time will tell....it would be very exciting if I started going into labor this evening and actually had him on our due date...my gut though says that's not going to happen...so tomorrow depending on what the doctor says we will most likely schedule to have a induction sometime later this week...I am not real excited about scheduling a induction....but I am not real comfortable with letting him go a week past delivery either....its very interesting but due to our altitude here in Cheyenne they will only let you go a week past delivery....it interesting how the altitude here effects birth weights and my understanding is that my systems that are supporting Dylan begin to breakdown sooner at this altitude....so I really have no interest in waiting a week....then having them induce me at that point...and if my placenta is beginning to fail...then Dylan will go into distress and we will end up with a cesarean birth....so I am thinking that I would like to give him a couple of days past my due date to arrive naturally and if he decides not to come...then we will move forward with a induction the other problem with a induction is your labor is not natural...that the contractions are very strong and often on top of each other...so your pain is much greater....meaning going without a epidural will be much more difficult...at this point we are not really concerned about how or when Dylan comes into the world...we just want him here...happy and healthy....

quick update on Jefferson....unfortunately all the city, YMCA, and boys club programs are booked for the summer...my understanding is that most of these programs get signed up for 2 to 3 months before summer...and of course his age bracket...they even have a waiting list and are not willing to take more names....I think we will talk to Nii Jeffersons father...they are very involved in his church...and see if they have any summer camps and if we can help with that....
