Well ladies, this is it. I have a
doctor's appointment in 24 hours to
discuss induction, so this is (probably)
my final day of being pregnant. I have my
favorite foods at hand, a hot bubblebath
planned and a stack of movies next to the
dvd player.
I also have the ringer to my phones turned
off. I've let my mother-in-law know that
I do not wish to be disturbed at all
today, and to please let others know if
they call her in a panic because they
can't reach me. I think if I have to
answer "are you in labor?" related
questions one more time, I might vomit.
Today is officially .Laura's day, and I
will spend it in peace if it *kills* me.

Good for you! I haven't had a chance to
relax during my pregnancies since baby
no.1. I was actually out clubbing when
my contractions started with her :shock:
i hope you get your induction and they
don't just say 'okay we'lll do in
induction next week' like they did to my
friend.
Are you overdue?

Yaaaay!!! Do you want to be induced or do
you want it to go naturally?
Why does your Dr. Want to induce you?
I'm just wondering because my gyno wanted
to induce, but I refused. I just never
figured they'd induce unless you were 2
weeks over.
Anyways, I wish idda turned off my
phones!! But we had to give directions to
the hospital! Lol...The days after I
didn't get to relax either!! Make sure
you just keep the phone off!! I wish I
would've!!!!!!!!!!
Have an awesome birth girl!!!! I want all
of the details!!!

My due date is tomorrow. I was taken off
of work two months ago because of
complications with my hip. (i have a very
small frame, and my body didn't respond
well to the extra weight on my joints.)
i've gotten progressively more
uncomfortable throughout the final
trimester and the docs told me they won't
let me go past my due date. I guess
they're sick of my complaining. :)
i'm about 90% sure that i'll be induced
tomorrow, and 9% sure i'll be induced on
wednesday. I only have a 1% doubt that
they'll refuse to induce me, because
dammit they promised! I think I might
kill someone if they go back on that.
I was told last wednesday that i'm
favorable for induction, so I don't forsee
them having any problems with it tomorrow.

Oh it sounds like you will be induced
then. Sorry to be ignorant but do you
know what your having? (i know you've
probably said before)

We're having a girl - .Alyvia. Don't
worry - this place will be flooded with
pictures of her soon enough!
Sarah - I was hoping to go naturally over
the weekend, as my doc told me she had a
good feeling it might happen. Sadly it
didn't, so i'm happy to be getting
induced. But i'm going to try to hold out
as long as possible without pain meds. I
guess it'll all depend on how strong and
fast the contractions come.
The hospital is amazing, though. I'll be
in a birthing suite, so i'll be delivering
in the same room as my recovery. And my
baby will stay in the room with me, which
is awesome because I don't think I could
handle them taking her away for a few
hours. I'm not really nervous about the
birth anymore... I'm just so ready to
meet my little girl.
