Due Date....Still No Baby!

Today is my due date, yet we don't have our baby girl. I had an OB appointment two days ago and I was still only 1cm dilated. I have been like this for about two and a half weeks. My tummy has really changed the last few days; before it was almost rock hard, now it is soft and squishy...the Doctor said not to worry about it, that the baby has probably just dropped down. It feels so weird though. So my OB leaves tomorrow for 10 days to Mexico, I really hope Makayla doesn't decide to come while she is away, it would really suck having a new Doctor I have never met delivery my baby. My OB honestly doesn't think I will be having the baby before she gets back. I am actually scheduled for non-stress tests on the 11th, 13th & 14th, an ultrasound on the 13th and induction for 8am on the 16th. It seems as though this "mucous plug" they often refer to keeps falling out...how many times can it fall out? Well my OB said that your body will keep producing it and it will continue to fall out if your baby isn't ready to come out....
