How obnoxious am I allowed to be? *updated*

FeistyFille

My friend texted me to say that she was being induced on Thursday at 4 p.m.  Her amniotic fluid was a little low, which can cause compression on the umbilical cord so they didn't want to wait.  Her due date was today so there was no problem with him being a premie. I never heard back from her.  I've sent her several unanswered texts since then and haven't heard a word.  I'm worried.  But I also don't want to intrude on what I hope to be blissed-out mommy/baby bonding time.  

Am I being ridiculous?  Should I just call?  Can I text or call her mom?  I want to believe that everything is fantastic, no problems, and she's just basking in her new mommyhood.  Another side of me is terrified that something happened.  I'm being paranoid, right? 

*Update*  I was being paranoid, thank goodness!  Shortly after posting this, I sent her yet another text.  I think the desperation was conveyed because I got an immediate response.  The birth didn't go as planned at all, but her baby boy is healthy and perfect!  She said she's overwhelmed and sore but on cloud nine.    Thanks for letting me panic with you.

I would probably call her mom if you know her. I don't think that's obnoxious and I would probably be kind of paranoid too.

Call her mom. I wouldn't text. Just phone her real quick w/ a, "Heeeey! I just wanted to check in and make sure that all went well w/ the delivery."

I panic when DH doesn't answer me quick enough about lunch. Panic about healthstuff is perfectly legit! I'm glad everythings fine

I'm so glad everything is fine!  I would have called, too.  I don't think you were being obnoxious at all.

I'm glad he's here and healthy! And I was the same way after Olivia was born. I was too out of it to answer calls or text. People who could got the clue and contacted DH or my mom. Everyone else ... well, sorry to them! LOL.

Yay! So glad to hear that baby boy is healthy!

Is this your friend in LA?

I'm the same way about panicking, so I don't blame you for being paranoid at all!

Yay!! So glad everything is ok and her baby boy is here and healthy!

BSE had told me about the induction but didn't know why they were doing it. I'd been thinking of S this weekend too! Thanks for the update!

oh, and your paranoia was completely understandable! i get the same way.

Yep.  It's her.  Her DH sent out an email at about 3 a.m. to everyone, including pics.  He's a cutie!

Glad to hear everything is okay.  When I had DS I had some friends freaking out because they all knew I was having a c-section and when I hadn't called by 4 they were ready to start dialing the hospital.  Then I had to apologize to them because I left my phone in the car and DH didn't get around to getting my stuff for me until like 5ish.  So when I got my phone I had a few texts waiting for me.  Ha.
