FINALLY!

SSchiefer · September 2011

My induction is scheduled to begin tomorrow night! I'm so excited it's finally here (and a little nervous). I can't wait to have my own birth story instead of living vicariously through everyone else's

Yay! You're in the 24 hour countdown to being a real L&D patient! I've been thinking about you and wondering what you decided to do - thanks for the update!

Very exciting! Congrats and thanks for the update!

Thanks, ladies! I'm already up and watching the clock. Worse than a kid at Christmas

Good luck! Make sure you eat enough before you go--I had to be induced b/c my water broke and I was GBS +, and things didn't go quickly and I ended up w/a c-section. I was so starving that night and next morning. I didn't get to eat for 24 hours.

I was just wondering how long it would be before I could eat again. I'm not sure if they'll let me snack tonight after I get the Cervidil. They are starting Pitocin in the a.m., so I'm assuming no eating then. This girl gets cranky when she's hungry!

All they let you have when you start pitocin is ice chips and popsicles. Sucks! I don't know about cervadil though.

So exciting! Good luck! Ditto the eat before you go. I didn't eat before I got to the hospital because I was too nervous to eat but that was a mistake. I was dying by the time I had to push.
