The Big Day

Okay so here it is November 20th at almost 6:00am and I can't sleep any longer. Today I am going into be started. AHHH I am going to have my baby today! Crazy to think about but exciting at the same time. I know there are a few out there who think I am nuts for doing it. That babies come when they are ready, but I have been sitting at the same progress for 2 weeks now. 2cm dialted, and just over 50% effaced. So at my last appointment my Dr. gave me the choice to be enduiced on Thursday morning, If I hadn't had the baby yet. Well here we are. I know that our Heavenly Father will be there to help, I have felt his spirit of approval through the last few days. And have talked to many people/nurses that feel she is ready. In a sense I was enduced with Ty too. Yes my water broke on its own, but I was only dialted to 1cm. So they had to put me on (PIT) anyways. And since the statistics show that your second baby rarely your water braks on its own, I though I would be sitting here for another week. So here we go..... I love you all, thanks for your prayers and thoughts. We will post pics as soon as possible. Until then... LOVE YOU ALL!

I don't think any readers are seriously going to judge you for getting induced! Good heavens! If they do, they should probably find other things to occupy their time and energy.

We're so excited!

Heidi,
Sounds like you're a little concerned about what others think about the decision to go forward. I can tell you from my experience that Mom's (mostly) and Dad's have the most widom in such cases involved their children....maybe it's inspiration or maybe it's a connection made with that child long ago. I, for one went 20 days beyone the due date once time. That wouldn't be allowed today. Starting labor a month ago wouldn't have been allowed for you either. In my day people had no choice but to let "nature take it's course", but sometimes that didn't work out well. Ultrasound would have been a miracle back then. Go ahead and enjoy this wonderful day. I, for one, like the 20th. We all love you and can't wait to hear............
