Confirm Instance Resize through API

Hi I am trying to resize my instance through python-novaclient API using : 

server_resources.resize(server,new_flavor_id)
server_resources.confirm_resize(server)

The problem here is that the second method-call is not waiting for the first to finish. So I am getting the exception : 

novaclient.exceptions.Conflict: Cannot 'confirmResize' instance 35961255-a2ec-4324-afb1-4084adf10ca3 while it is in vm_state active (HTTP 409) (Request-ID: req-06cb90cf-58d9-476c-be43-ba67eec1c71b)

How to proceed?

Ran into the same issue; got a workaround by just waiting untill the instance.status is on "VERIFY_RESIZE"

            instance = nova.servers.get(server.id)
            nova.servers.resize(server,new_flavor_id)
            while instance.status != "VERIFY_RESIZE":
                instance = nova.servers.get(server.id)
                time.sleep(3)
            nova.servers.confirm_resize(server.id)
