Update 1: (AW) Feeling SO discouraged.

Update: ------------------------------------
We talked to the doctor for a long long time yesterday. After pitocin on the maximum dose ALL day.. There were no changes whatsoever.

Her 3 options in this situation:

1- Send someone home and hope labor kicks in naturally- Can't because the only place my BP stays down is hospital bed rest

2- Try again on Pitocin. Just re-do what we did today. If again it doesn't work, c-section.

3- c-section.

Baby girl will arrive 8am today via c-section. I'm wicked nervous.. But excited. She will be so many dreams come true.

Oh, and they get to remove my gigantic ovarian cyst at the same time., that's a plus.

Thank you so much for your encouraging words. I feel like I'm going a little bit crazy in here.
----------------------------------------------

Day 5 of hospital. Day 3 of induction. No signs of baby coming. She definitely needs to come out.. My BP has been not good at all and I am 39.5 weeks. If I even sit up in the rocking chair for an hour it goes back up. It is so hard staying positive at this point.

My poor husband is having a hard time too.. He just cannot wait to meet his daughter.

No point to this post really... I am just having such a tough time.

  • I'm sorry; that really does sound very crummy. I have nothing to say that would be helpful, just stranger hugs and support! Is a c section being talked about?
  • Loading the player...
  • Oh my, I was in 24 hour labor before a c section and I could hardly stand it. I promise you WILL forget. It's been less than 48 hours for me and it already seems so far away!! Keep your eye on the prize sweetie it's totally worth it!
  • At least you have the bump to keep you entertained. Geez, what did people do prior to cell phones and internet. Good luck and I'll be sending you some baby vibes!
