Having Baby … BRB

May 20th, 2008

So tonight at 6pm I am going to start being induced for labor.  Thursday of last week we had an ultrasound.  Chloe weighed 8lbs and 7oz.  The doctor said this weight can be off by 2lbs either way.  Because I do not want to birth a 10lb baby and our home remedies of walking, sex, and gravel roads are not working, we have decided to go with induction.

At 6pm I will check into the hospital and be given a prostaglandin to thin my cervix and start dilation. Once I am dilated to around 3cm, they will start the pitocin.  We are expecting to have a baby girl sometime tomorrow morning.

Of course, I will be posting a few bajillion photos of our little princess once we are back home.  I would take my laptop (the hospital has wireless internet), but I already packed half the house to take with us.  I don’t think I have room in the car :)
