I've been trying all kinds of things to get Abby Kate OUT! Here are the numbers...
2 - times I've had my membranes stripped (Don't worry, I won't explain this procedure)
100 - squats I've done today
8 - miles I've walked in the last few days
6 - cups of disgusting raspberry leaf tea I've consumed, blech!
3 - hospital bags we have packed ready to go (one for baby, one for me, one for Mike)
1 - phone # of the air traffic controller I carry with me to get Mike out of the sky and home to me (just in case)
1 - centimeters I'm dilated as of Wednesday
1,000,000 - thoughts I've had about labor
10,000,000 - thoughts I've had about our daughter
39.5 - weeks I've been pregnant
276 - days I've been pregnant
4 - days until my due date
0 - real contractions I've had
...but it won't be much longer. If I go past my due date, Dr. Branton will induce at 41 weeks. So we're looking at 1.5 weeks at the most until she'll be here! We're so excited. I'll continue to keep you updated on our progress over the next few days.

Casey, I'm sorry I built up the tea in your mind. I wish it had done the trick for you. You know there is one other thing you might try but it requiring Mike being home! :) I'm sure it's last on your mind these days. Just joking really as I can't even remember if we tried that or not by the point you are now at. I had Philip four days past due date so I've been where you are. Love, Kim

I think I would be a bundle of nerves.
1.5 weeks at the most....a very short time, really....but I am sure it seems like a lifetime to you.
We are praying for you!

Wait, you forgot something. How many times have you and Mike...um...oh...never mind haha
Hang in there!!!
Hang in there Case, you are in the final countdown. I keep watching my phone, waiting to get the word any minute. You are gonna do great. I can't wait to see Abby Kate's beautiful (Mike look a like) face! Her Aunt Lyndsay loves her to death already!
