2 weeks!!!

so after a lot of discussion between Ricky and I and our doctor we have decided that we will be induced on the 19th of November. that means only two more weeks until our little guy is here!!!! we are excited but i am beginning to become pretty nervous. (not about becoming a parent but more the just how bad will it hurt and to find out my pain tolerance level) We decided that induction was something that we wanted to consider after we found out that the mine will only allow Ricky to take 2 days off for Tavans arrival. We were worried that whenever Tavan did come that i would be in the hospital those 2 days and when it came time to go home, Ricky would be at work and miss being home with a brand new baby. This is not something that we wanted to happen. so after looking at the calender with Ricky working Monday- Thursdays we decided that he could take Thursday and Monday off because the mine will not be open during Thanksgiving so that would allow Ricky to have from the 19th-29th home with Tavan and I ( he might have to work on or two of those days...but better than nothing). We were nervous about asking our Doctor about being induced but were relieved when he said that "everyone" was healthy enough and that it really would only be a couple days before my due date and that he was completely comfortable with doing it.. So ....unless Tavan has different plans for us.....he will be here for Thanksgiving!!!
