Monday, August 18, 2008 ~ 39 weeks 1 day
Got to St. Luke's this morning, and they didn't even know we were coming, very frustrating, but ended up meeting up with Ashley(the fetal-maternal coordinator) and she said that they all should have known, that the NICU knew, and so did Children's Mercy, but aparently the Labor and Delivery unit didnt. Needless to say it was a pretty slow start to the morning. They ended up starting my Pitocin drip until after 10:00. They got a good pattern going, and the contractions were coming every 2 minutes. I was definatley feeling them and towards the afternoon was getting quite uncomfrotable. At around 5 Dr. Gibbs (he's the on call perinatiologist) chekced my cervix and it had not changed at all from this morning. What a bummer. So instead of risking me delivering in the middle of the night, they decided to stop the Pit drip, for the night, let me eat, and start it all over first thing in the morning. Needless to say I will be resting up tonite for an anticipated long day tomorrow. Feeling good, Brian is going to go out and get me food, hospitality dining just isnt that appealing. We'll keep everyone posted!

That stubbornness will serve her well after her arrival. Relax tonight and enjoy being waited on.
oh that is so frustrating! But this half day of pit will help to ripen your cervix more and may make for a better induction tomorrow. It might it end up working out for the better, but it does definitely make for a long day! Hang in there!
Good luck tomorrow and we can't wait to see the first cute photos!

I'm sorry! I hope things go well tomorrow
Sorry to hear things are going so slow for you. Hope things go better for you tomorrow.
Just wanted to let you know that Justin and I are thinking of you and still saying our prayers for baby girl Reed.
If you need anything... anything at all, we're just in Overland Park. We'll do whatever we can and we can be there pretty quickly.
We can't wait to see you, B and baby girl.
Love you both bunches! Good luck with everything tomorrow!
Thinking of you and hope everything goes well. What were you craving? Get some rest.
