UHggg. No baby. No contractions.
We went to the doctor and set a date. Well the doctor set the date since it was the only one open this week. We will be going to the hospital at 5:00AM on Thursday to get induced. Hooray!?! I didn't want to get induced in fear of a long and painful labor. I am considering just getting an epideral before too much pain so that I can enjoy my day and have visitors, take a nap, and play games with Joe. Is that selfish and being a weenie though? I felt like I could get through labor with this second child if it came naturally and wasn't hard labor the entire time. Also having the idea that your second child is supposed to come faster than your first. Oh well, I have another day to think about it..........
Well, maybe another day. I lied about the no contraction thing. Ever since the doctor did the internal exam(yucky) my uterus got mad and has been contracting since about 11am today. Not contractions that I can time yet but enough to make me sit until one is gone. Bothersome enough that I sent my kid to a friend's house to play.
Wouldn't it be funny to have the baby early after calling all the family and setting up the perfect babysitting plan for Collin? I am not getting my hopes up either way and just shut my brain off so my body can do what it needs to do (right, shut my brain off)
Anyways, that is the plan, we will see if I make it til Thursday.

Well, hopefully that little one came yesterday or today, but if not hopefully all will go well tomorrow. Second babies are not always faster - mine wasn't. But they sure are stubborn about coming when they are ready. Our thoughts are prayers are with you this week. Love ya!!
