Contraction City!

Give me a break!! I went to the Doctor this morning at 9 am in high hopes of being even close to delivering this baby, but NO! The doctor informed me that I am still dialated to a 2 and have not progressed since last week! How is that even possible since I was doing a ton of stuff for the wedding last weekend? This baby just has it's own time table I guess! He said that if I am still prego next week for our next appointment, than we are scheduling an induction on Monday, September 29th which is still forever away in a pregnant ladies mind!

I went to the health store today to get me some blue cohosh (my research has shown that if you take this 4 times a day in capsule form that it will open up the cervix and you will have the baby in 3 days!) but it just was not meant to be because they had just barely run out! Apparently, there are a lot of prego women in September wanting to get their hands on this wierd herb!

I have been having a TON of contractions; it's just that none of them are consistant or regular! Maybe I should name the baby boy Braxton since I am having so many Braxton Hicks Contractions!

This weekend I am going for the next thing-Spicy food! I really want Regan to take me to a Thai place and get some really spicy curry!

Anyway, just wanted to give you the update on this baby of mine that will not come out! I am ready more than I have ever been! I am uncomfortable, I have heartburn, I am so huge, and more than anything, I am just getting antsy for this new little arrival to join our family!

Wish us luck! We are going to the BYU game this weekend-maybe my water will break at the stadium!!!!

Name Help

So Regan and I have been having a hard time deciding on baby names now that we are down to the wire! We love the name Ellie (Elle) for a girl so that is a for sure name for a girl! For a boy, the options are Ryker, Tage, Crew but I want some more options! If anyone has some cute boy name ideas, please leave a comment on this post so that I can start thinking of what this little boy's name will be! Also, vote on the existing names on the side as well!
Thanks for your help!
