Will tomorrow be the day?

[NicoleLJ]

Well tomorrow I am being induced. Not with the drip, thank goodness. I would never want the drip. My doctor always just strips the membranes instead. A few minutes of pain for a natural labour.

Ronan is now a week over due, which is perfect. And we are all ready and excited to see him. My bag is pack with everything I will need and the baby will need. Hubby has his own bag packed also. We have the music and CD player and DVD's and a potable DVD player. This will help the 3 days of being in the hospital go way faster. We even have our sparkling juice(raspberry) to celebrate with afterwards. And the car seat is installed.

Meals are made and frozen so no cooking is needed after we get back for at least 3-4 weeks.

So I think we are pretty much ready. Doubt I will sleep much tonight. My doctor has me scheuled to be induced first thing in the morning. If all goes well then I will come back home till my contractions are about 15 mintues apart and then head back into the hospital to continue until I need the epidural.

So hopefully in 3 days you can all look forward to me posting pictures of Ronan and getting to hear all about my wonderful stay in the hospital. lol

So keep your fingers crossed all.

How exciting! Good luck to you. I don't remember not sleeping the night before I was induced. I was so tired that I don't think it bothered me.

Good luck and sweet thoughts! I had the drip for each of my three sons and used natural childbirth methods ( other than that) for each one. It was fine and worked out very well, so please don't worry if it has to happen!

Good thoughts heading your way. Keep us updated.

Thanks so much everyone for your support. I really appreciate it.

Ok just got back. In a little pain. Hate teh procedure but sure worth it. lol I am already at 2cm's. And my doctor says everything seems ready. So he stripped the membranes and then sent me home. On the way home I had 2 contractions. So it is now just a matter of waiting to see if they keep coming or stop. If they stop then I am to phone in on Wednesday and they will apply some gell to try and induce me. But he doesn't think that will happen and it never has.

So that is the update for now. Will let you know as the day progresses.
