January 2014 Moms

Baby girl got her eviction notice today!

At my appointment today still no change: no dilation at all, but baby is really low. My due date is Jan 25th and my OB and I have been trying to find a balance of exactly when to consider induction. We want my tailbone to have as much time to heal as possible, BUT the longer she stays in the bigger she could be and therefore making it more likely that my tailbone will re-break in delivery.

That being said the plan now is to check in to the hospital next Thursday night (Jan23), start cytotec, and then pitocin will start Friday morning on the 24th. That still gives her a week to maybe come on her own, or hopefully at least give me a chance to dilate some prior. So while I'm glad about this plan, I'm still completely miserable in pain. I never ever dreamed how difficult this pregnancy could be. I feel like I am 10 times stronger of a woman than I was before this journey began. Both from the infertility struggles prior, and then the huge physical struggles that came after the BFP. I know I can make it one more week though. Just please don't get too much bigger baby girl!
