IT’S TIME!!!

March 28, 2012

It’s TIME!!!! AHHH!!!! No, I am not sitting here in agonizing pain busting out a blog. I had a doctor appt. tonight (last night) and was informed that I am now 5 cm dilated (Holy cats!) and she doesn’t want to wait much longer, so tomorrow morning (today) I am being induced!

I couldn’t believe it when she said 5 cm…. Pff. Labor is easy! πŸ˜‰

Last night as a family of three! πŸ™‚

So now The Hubby and I are “prepping” for tomorrow. Last minute packing, laundry folding, floor mopping, battery charging, blog writing… basically things to occupy our minds since there is NO way we can sleep right now.

Oh, it looks like we are going to the store for some “essentials!” 9:00 pm store run!

It is now 9:30 and we just got home from the store to pick up those “essentials” for tomorrow. I am still trying to get my water to break on its own, and this is what The Hubby captured me doing up and down the aisles. What a peach. I feel quite silly looking at it now, but what the heck, right? In my defense, Michael Jackson’s “Man in the Mirror” was playing in the background!

Either way we will get to meet our SON tomorrow. YAHOO!!! Ahh I can’t even describe how I feel right now!

We are going to have a son. HUGE smile. πŸ™‚

This is apparently what we “needed” the night before having our son. And I just downed that spicy sushi and pineapple, as apparently those can stimulate labor.

Bring it on!!!

Time to get back to “business”. Next time you all hear from me… you will know our son’s name!! EEeee!!!!!

Update.
I was supposed to go into the hospital at 6 am this morning and have my water broken at 7 am. So, I set my alarm for 4:55 and shot out of bed once it went off.

Okay, maybe it was more like… waited 30 seconds and then rolled out of bed, but I am not used to getting up at that time yet! I hopped in the shower, made sure to shave those legs up nicely, and then checked my phone when I got out.

Missed call.

And I just knew.

I called back and it was the hospital. The birthing center is full and I am to call back at noon, in which I will most likely be admitted at that time. So, while it’s still “TIME!!!” I suppose it is delayed for a few hours.

I was able to get a couple more hours of sleep, which was amazing, and will probably kill that extra time today by going to play with my daughter. So… I suppose it’s not all bad. But, I do expect this to be my last post before Little Man arrives… so until then please be praying and wishing for an easy-going labor and healthy baby boy!

Happy Laboring Day!

P.S. Oh, and as I am sure you have guessed, my prancing around, spicy sushi & pineapple eating binge last night did not work. Not even a semi-painful contraction.

Pff.
