[tri-med] update on Jeremiah

Well, I made one more week - I'm now 37 weeks along!  I went in for my 
appointment this morning expecting that they would look at inducing me (because 
of Jeremiah's apparent weight stagnation), but when they examined my cervix 
they decided I was so tight that it would be an awful job getting me into 
labour, and they didn't want to take the risk of a failed induction - SOOOO we 
wait!  The good news is that his heart, the cord, and his movements all show 
perfect signs of health, and although I look as big as a house, I'm doing fine 
physically as well.  (My mother-in-law says when I sit on the couch she can see 
Jeremiah and hiding somewhere behind is me - its a pretty accurate description, 
given how short I am!)

Thanks to everyone who has provided answers to my questions the last few days - 
I don't get a chance to answer each one individually, but they are appreciated 
very much!

I will keep you all updated when something interesting finally decides to 
happen, but at the moment it looks like it could still be a couple or three 
weeks!  (I don't think they'll let me go past 40 weeks, but who knows?)
