GL murf! Try not to freak yourself out too much and definitely work on the sleep thing, you will need your strength tomorrow! I'll be thinking about you and LO!
Anyone would be anxious about an induction. I know I'd be on edge all day. Even if you can't sleep try to rest up, you're gonna need as much energy as you can muster up. GL and prayers that everything goes well.

Its the anticipation and the build up of KNOWING you will be in labor this time tomorrow! At least when you go into labor it is a surprise. If that makes sense.
I definitely plan on trying to sleep tonight I think I will take some Tylenol PM at like 7 so I can sleep. At least I am getting cervadil first for 4 hours to try and push me to 4cm before pitocin and I am hoping to nap during those 4 hours as well.
How did you sleep last night! I go in Tuesday. I don't think I can sleep tonight!
Tylenol PM is your friend! I slept OK not great but OK. But, then again I haven't slept great in like 10 weeks! I kept dreaming about it and in one dream DH and I got to the hospital at 5am only to have them tell us the induction had been canceled and I was livid. Plus I woke up at 3:30 and thought oh my I will have my alarm going off at this time tomorrow LOL
I'm with you! I go in @ 8:30am tomorrow and I have been a ball of nerves all weekend - today is the worst. I'm glad I was semi-able to sleep last night, I knew I wouldn't be sleeping tonight!
With my girls my water spontaneously broke so I had no idea when I would be going into labor - it's SO much better that way!
Good Luck - we will be holding our babies in no time!!

I was so hoping for some water breaking action like a week ago but nope. I didn't want to make it to my induction but here I am! We will definitely not be sleeping tonight!
I find that if I think of like Tues when I have a new baby and get to show him to everyone I can calm down!
you won't. I'm sorry, but I doubt I'd be able to sleep! ...with out a sleeping pill, and even then prob not. I have a date set for thursday and am already slightly feeling crazy.
I just posted about almost the same thing. I'm more nervous about becoming a parent. I was able to sleep last night, but I'm afraid for tonight. We can race to the finish , even though I have a 3 hour jump start.
What is it with these early times anyways? Your in cali, what hospital? I will be at Cedars Sinai.

Holy moly you are going in at the middle of night! 2am?! I know where cedar sinai is I am way more inland. I am delivering at Pomona Valley
I am nervous for you! Lol I guess that doesn't help.
Do me a favor and eat something! So many people eat a light breakfast and then are raging hungry! that morning. Are they having you stop eating at midnight? ugh I think I then would still sneak something small that morning. It gives women so much energy!

I have to stop at midnight just in case he is too big and I cant do it and end up with a c-section. I figure my sister and mom had 10lbs babies I can too(and its just a GUESS he could be 7lbs who knows) so SHH don't tell but I am eating something! Light yes but something still. I will be a raging biitch if I am hungry and in pain!
You will be just fine! I wonder how DH and I will sleep on Wednesday...ive come to the conclusion that is an impossibility so i will do chores...lol good luck and cant wait to see lil Silas

You seriously look like you are going to have a 10lb baby though! But don't get discouraged there was a post a few days ago of a woman that gave birth to 10lb and I have a friend that has done that twice already! some women just make big babies like her!
Do whatever you can to get sleep!! I got no sleep whatsoever the night I went into labor nor the day I had Collin and felt like a zombie. Do what you need to do to be rested and you'll do great. Just remember...the epi is your best friend! No matter how much pain you are in, you forget about it the minute you hear your baby cry and hold him for the first time.
Congratulations! I can imagine feeling exactly the same way! Enjoy the game tonight with your hubby and try to relax as much as you can. If you really can't sleep, my doc says it's fine to take benedryl or tylenol PM.
Re: Its official I am freaked out about tomorrow
Yea congrats and gl. Try to get some sleep girl tomorrow morning will be here before you know it.
I'd be anxious too! Try to keep your mind off of it - if you're nervous about it. Read a book, go for a walk, play games with DH, watch a movie...
Good luck tomorrow!

I was like that too but luckily I went in at night, and they gave me some Ambien to help me sleep.
Good luck with your induction tomorrow!
