@KJD291 AW ---BABY IS HERE!

Birth update in comments!!




*update***


Baby is looking great on monitors, and nothing is progressing, so they are allowing me (at 9pm--5more min)) to shut off the PIT and sleep tonight and start again in the morning. 

Im torn between wanting to get this done and get home to my DD1 and have my new baby in my arms--but I also really don't want to be pumped with the PIT all night, giving my body another day to do its thing-and my mind a night of sleep is just feeling more like what my spirit and birth experience needs. 
SO: I'll see ya'll in the morning ;) 
thank you so so so much for the encouragement and prayers!! 
Xoxo






(((First post)))
currently in L&D

My first appt: ultrasound showed I have "very low" fluids. Went to my midwife appointment with that info and she sent me to L&D for NST and to make a "plan" with the MW on call here.

MW on call just said fluid is at the point that they won't let me stay pregnant. i understand but I'm upset and pissed off we have to go the induction route after ALL this waiting :( 

Husband is on his way and then they are going to let me start with some nipple stimulation and walking for an hour or two to see if that with a membrane sweep will kick anything into gear... and then we start the talks of PIT or water break or... etc etc.

    @kjd291 T&Ps for you!

    Evidence based research shows that multiple membrane sweeps in one day can be very effective. Ask if you can get more than one!

    I'm sorry that labor hasn't started out the way you wanted it to, but you get to meet baby so soon! Good luck! I hope they can get labor rolling without pit or other significant intervention.

    Thanks for all the love mamas!! DH is here and I'm feeling better about this all going down today.  They've made me get an IV started to push some fluids to try and make baby happier and help things go smoothly. Then I've requested to unhook after I empty a bag.  Otherwise just waiting around for shift change to start anything else.
    @kjd291 !!! I just saw this post!!!!!! Lifting you and Baby up in prayer RIGHT NOW!!!! You have been so encouraging and informative and helpful to all of us FTM's, my prayer is that what happens from this point on aligns exactly with your hopes for this delivery. Lord, we lift this petition up to You!! In Jesus Name. 

    Sending you loads of LOVE, K !!!!!! XOXOXOXO

    Update: starting the dreaded PIT : [  the pumping and walking did bring progress: dialated an extra centimeter and thinned out, but hasn't kicked me into active labor. 

    The next hope is that i only need the smallest amount of PIT to get started and then she's willing to unhook me again and see if my body can keep doing it on its own.

    Trying to stay positive even though this is dejavu from my DDs induction and I really didn't want to do this again.
