Baby Date

I went to the Dr yesterday and he would like to start me on April 7th. I have another appointment before then where he will decide if I am ready. When I had Max, my water broke and we went to the hospital. I was not having contractions and the nurse put me on platoson to get the hard labor going. Max was born about 5 hours after that. My body seems to respond extra well to the meds. In fact, I'm not sure what happened, but my body started to shake uncontrollably...I had an epidural and the shaking stopped. I'm not really in love with the idea of being induced but Curtis' family is leaving town on Friday and my Parents are leaving on Monday. I'm still trying to decide. Dr. Nance was really against inducing me with Max so I was really surprised at his offer. I guess I still have until Monday to decide.

I can't wait for next week! Yay!! Being induced wasn't bad it was just long!! But, you can lay in bed and relax until things get a little further along. It is nice to have it all scheduled too. It will all be wonderful and you will have a sweet baby soon!

I'm excited to see your family grow! Soon a beautiful baby. I love how they smell so fresh & they have soft heads, and how everything is miniature, even down to their perfect nails.

I've always been nervous about being induced, too. It would be nice to plan things, though. Good luck, I'm sure it will all work out!

My water broke with saylor, and I was induced with willow. Both have their pluses and minuses!! Being induced was way shorter labor for me, and i bounced back way quicker this time. Good luck, you will make the right decision!!
