First Day of Maternity Leave

So today was the first day that I didn't have to go to work-and it was a little strange. What does a person do when they can't move very much and are super uncomfortable? Lay around all day...and that's what I did. I made it out to the post office-stood in line for about 10 minutes and had to come home-thought I was going to pass out. I called Dr. P today to see if she wanted me to come in today for an appointment-and boo-she said to continue to wait until Wednesday. Grayson has decided once again to set up shop right on my sciatic nerve on my right side-which causes severe pain in my back all the way down my leg whenever I decide to do anything. It's starting to cause lots of back pressure throughout my back as well. I had to ask the nurse when I called about what to do-and she just said to take Tylenol (check) put heat/cold on it, rest (check) and just know that it's part of this whole thing.
So when we go on Wednesday-I'm assuming that we will talk about being induced since Saturday is our due date-I really don't think that this guy is going to come out on his own-even though Rob and I would LOVE for him too...he already isn't listening to his parents!
Keep on checking...I'll update after Wednesday's appointment!
