Baby tomorrow!

Just in case you read my blog only- and don't follow any other form of instant communication with me- I will be having the baby tomorrow- so it seems.

I go in to the hospital about 11:30 tonight and will be admitted at 12- that puts me at 39 weeks, ideal for insurance, they'll start me on a low dose of pitocin. My doctor seems to think it will take awhile and said- see you at 6am. We'll see...

Yesterday was a really off day. I hadn't felt the baby move and was trying to take a nap and couldn't. Every bad thing that is possible played in my mind over and over. So I went in for a non-stress test (NST), the baby was fine, but she really wasn't moving, they monitored me for over an hour and I felt 3 slight movements, but her heartbeat was beating away beautifully. He said he could induce or let me sit it out- hello induction, I'm dying over here.

So I never made it in for my regular appointment today- I guess we'll see if I have progressed any. Last week I was soft and effaced and almost 2 cm with the baby's head at station 0 (which means she's soo low). I've had tons and tons of contractions but no regularity with any of them. BTW- she's been moving like crazy today, and especially right now. I think she's getting anxious too!

Just over an hour and we head out!
