PresTON is the BoSs!!!

I know Jesse and I have been acting like Preston has gone overdue this past week and is a little ridiculous, but we are officially done :) We guess Preston is the boss now. He will come when he wants to no matter how much we try. After the day i tried the "Raspberry Leaf Tea" Jesse was reading in the Internet other ways that help labor. We tried the loooong walks, "Getting Freaky" (sorry too much info), one other thing and finally the "Black Cohosh herb". Jesse's sister took Black Cohosh, 2 wk's before her due date and she went in labor the same day. So Friday night we went out for an Ice Cream and Jesse wanted to go and buy the Black Cohosh so i could take it that night. It was 10PM so we didn't have many store choices. We tried Walgreen, Smiths etc. but no luck. Saturday morning Jesse went to "Natural Food" store and got some there. I didn't really feel like taking it, because i was feeling guilty acting that way before my due date. Anyways... Jesse played the" Please take it and make me happy" trigger and he got me at "make me happy" I took it around 1pm and stayed active all day by doing house work. By the way, it tasted GROSS. Ewwwww... For dinner we went to Cafe Rio and Jesse prepared the Black Cohosh and took it w/us. So here i am like a retard trying to drink it while waiting to order at Cafe Rio. Jesse totally believed that the "Black Cohosh" will work and by adding an hour LONG-FAST walk after it, will do it for sure. So here we went in to the longest walk we have gone and it was intense. The best workout I've gotten in a while, i was so tires after it. We went to bed totally thinking this was the real thing. 3 times during the night Jesse asks me the same questions: Zhema r u in labor yet? Nop... A few hours latter: Zhema, how about now? Nop... Towards the morning: Zhema any signs yet? Nop... "He sucks, let him stay there then"- he said.
We are just SO Excited and cant wait, so i guess we'll find out on Tuesday when i have the doc. appointment if I'm dilated more or they will induce me.
Good way of showing your parents to be patient Preston :)

E-lo that is so funny!! I love all those tricks and ways to get labor going. My favorite that I have heard of is to go and jump on the tramp!! Ha ha the only thing that helps enduce is peeing your pants!
