Seeing that they said one of those days!!! Anyways I went to the doc today and I am still only a fingertip dialated, but I am 50% effaced!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Woo hoo!!
Anyways sunday they are going to put something in my cervix to make it thin I believe she called it cervidel or something (forgive me if I am wrong) and then 12 hours later they will start the pitocin. Well at the doc appt. Today when she discovered my jump in effacement she said sunday night they might just start me on the pitocin, wish me luck!!! I hope it is sunday cause I am going to be 15 days overdue on monday and that is the day the will start the pitocin, at 7am and who knows how long it takes to work???

Hey thanks I just wish it was all over with now. I want to hold her so bad. I am tired of trying her clothes on my belly. I am tired of carrying around cute diaper bags and no cute little baby. I am tired of looking at an mpty crib, and most of all its these phone calls saying you still have not had that baby yet? At first it was like no, but soon. Now 12 days later and 5-6 calls a day its like no leave me alone, lol. So thanks again and yeah I am saying sunday so I only have to think I have 2 days left, lol, technically it is friday. See listen to me I am turning into an evil count down person, lol lol. I crack myself up. I am sorry if I sounded menai dunno if I did or not I am having 1,000's of emotions right now!!!
Lots of love,
heather and hayley

What would happen if there was no technology to induce and we only had nature? Would some be pregnant forever? Or just a really long time or what?

Well, eventually at the end, your body starts absorbing the amniotic fluid back into itself which is dangerous for the baby. I'm not sure what the body would do naturally at that point, whether you would naturally go into labor, or stillbirth, or whatever.

Wow. I would have screamed at the doctor to give me and earlier induction date or tell them I was gonna shove a baby up his butt and make him carry it for 42 weeks. I bet your dr is a guy. Girl drs seem to understand and induce you earlier. But when they gave me pitocin I was 3 cm dilated....That was at 4:30 am, I was 10 cm by 10:30 maybe 11 am. But I was too tired so I didnt start pyshung until 12:10pm. So it doesn't take too long! Good luck!

Good luck heather. Soon your going to be holding your beautiful baby girl. Alot sooner than it feels. I would have yelled at the doctor and told them I wanted that baby out and I couldnt take it no more.

Aww sorry to hear heather! I also missed ur call but I just got out of the hospital today so call me when u see this!
I hope they induce u soon. Dont worry too much about inducing... Sometimes its short and sometimes its long. When I got induced, I had her within 3 and a half hours of being induced and I only got demerol, so its not so bad. But walk walk walk! I hope ur doing good! Call me soon and I cant wait to see pics of baby!!!!
