Well, I just got a phone call from the hospital. They want to know if I was interested in coming in 48 hours early to start the induction. Really???? Apparently the next few days are going to be busy, and while they would be glad to have me still come in on Monday, Dr. Shonekan was looking at folders and pulled a few she thought might be interested in coming in earlier....so, while I of course am shaking a little bit from the reality and anxiety of it all, John is all, "Let's do it!"
So, do it I guess we will. We go in tonight at 7 pm. They'll do the cervidil treatment, let me 'sleep' through the night (ha ha, I've heard the cramping doesn't lend itself to that much, but nice thoughts....) and start the Pitocin tomorrow. With any luck then, he'll be born November 28th or 29th.
Well, Matthew....guess we'll be meeting you soon! Can't wait!!!

Also - can I post something on the Kryg yahoo site for everyone on the list to do the same? It isn't my news to share, but I would guess a lot of folks on the site remember you and with you well today, tomorrow and foever.

Hi Lori,
ReplyDeleteI know you don't know me, but I am praying for you with tears in my eyes right now. I learned of your story from a friend's blog (Holding On For The Ride), and I am just so sorry. May God lift you and John up as He holds Matthew for you.
