No progress

Just what you want to hear when you're within a week of your due date, but it's basically the news we got at our appointment today. I wish I could lie & say I was the picture of serenity and that I took the news well, but I started crying and I don't think I've stopped since.
It didn't make help that when told we needed to schedule our next appointment as an ultrasound to determine when to induce, we were told the ultrasound tech was "very busy" and the first available appointment would be next Wednesday. That's right, 2 days after my due date. That's right, I will be 2 days post-term before I even have an appointment to set an induction date. Which probably means it'll probably be a good 5 days before I actually am induced. Which probably means I will be giving birth to a 10lb toddler. Cue hysterical meltdown standing in front of the receptionist scheduling the appointment, who tried to console me by reminding me the appointment was after my due date and "hopefully we won't even need to see you." No fucking shit genius. It took everything I had not to launch myself over that counter and strangle her.
