Only 7 days to go

So I used to think that this pregnancy was just flying by . . . . now that I have a week left, it's at a crawl. Dr. said I am 1 cm dialated ( I was that way 2 weeks ago ) . . . . we also set up an induction date of sept. 2, incase I don't have her before then. I am constantly having contractions . . . which are so weird . . . . but they are getting stronger, so hopefully it won't be a whole lot longer. I'm past the stage of fear, and I'm to the stage of . . . .'whatever, let's just get this over with, I'm tired of being pregnant'. I finally feel like I am completely ready for the baby to come. . . I have everything I need at home, and I have pre-registered at the hospital . . . . so now I'm just waiting. I think that Matt is getting nervous though . . yesterday he told me that he wants me to talk to my boss about working from home. . . I think he feels a lot better if he can take care of me here, rather than having to worry about me trying to drive myself home while I am in labor ( I wouldn't do that if I was in hard labor, but I guess a lot can change in a 20 minute drive home. ) of course I am pretty hard headed and he knows it, so I guess he has good reason to worry that I would try and do it all myself rather than asking for help.
