Inducement exercise



Well, it's 39 weeks and we are all wondering when Oona is going to make her grand entrance. Don't worry, we'll let you know when the moment comes, but in the mean time we are doing all we can short of shaking her out. Keely is ordering spicy food every day. Tuesday was extra spicy Indian food. Last night we made a stir fry with jalepeno chilies. She's doing her yoga every night focusing on those poses most likely to coax Oona farther down, though I can't imagine how she can get any lower without coming out.

We are also taking daily walks. I encourage Keel to jump up and down, but she is sticking with simple exercises for now. Our neighbors, Mike and Rene, just rescued a 10-month old yellow lab mix named Bailey. He's super chill and not jumpy. Our cats haven't gotten used to him yet, but I'm sure Oona will love having a dog next door. We also get the bonus of taking our turns dog walking while they are at work. It's a great excuse for us to get out, but it's even better to pretend we have a dog for 20 minutes without any of the work of owning a dog. Thanks Mike and Rene.
