Today's the day!

OK ladies,
  I am going in tonight to be induced.  I really hoped he would show on his own before this, but I guess he is stubborn.  I go in tonight at 7 for cervadil and start poticin tomorrow.  SO I guess he has some time to make his apperance on his own.  I have been having lots of contractions and some big back pain.  Wish me luck, I am kinda nerveous....   Ahhh I feel like I havent done this before.   I will post pics soon.

I am so impressed you did an induction with no epidural.  I asked for that thing about 4 hours into the pitocin... pitocin totally sucked for me!  Glad to hear you had a better outcome than I with that stuff.  You are a champ for sure!

Chase is here,  the induction went really well.  We went in Monday night and started something to soften the rest of my cervix I had 2 doses of that inserted.  Tuesday at 545 I started the pitocin and contractions started right away but got hard at 7 ish my water broke on it's own and I asked for the epidural, I'm a baby I know.  My contractions got bad andstarted feeling a lot of pressure.  The nurse checked me and I was 9.5 and it was too late to get the epidural then, the dc took too long,   My dc cAme in 4 pushes later he was out no tears or cuts, by 813.  He is 9.8 and 21.5 inches.  We are home now, Mady adores her brother kisses him all day long.  Things are going well otherwise, definitely a change of pace with 2 and doing the baby thing again.
