Had a very interesting doctor's appt this morning. I am 2cm, 40% effaced and Shane is at -3 station. Definite improvement! Thank you Evening Primrose Oil. But my OB was in a grumpy mood and was kind of an ass today. Here's how the conversation went:
OB: Do you want to be induced tomorrow?
Me: Yes?
OB: OK, we will start the pit and if he doesn't move down enough for me to break your water, we are taking everything off, sending you home and trying again next week.
Me: Should I wait until next week to get induced?
OB: How long have you known me?
Me: Ummmm?
OB: Do I manipulate people?
Me: Yes?
OB: No I don't
Then he made his little notes, he did tell me I have medical reasons and a favorable cervix for getting induced. But I kind of needed more confidence from him.
Then when I was leaving his office he asked me:
"If he doesn't move down and I can't break your water, do you want to go home and try again next week? Or have a C-section?"
I said, "Go home."
He said, "Good/correct answer"
UMMMMMMMMMMMMM...WTF?! In my defense, the day before I got induced with Avery I was between a 2-3, 50% effaced and she was at -3 station. He didn't give me any of this crap with her. Now instead of feeling overjoyed, I am petrified that he won't be able to break my water. SO, to make a long story short, please pray for me. Send me some positive energy/thoughts/vibes. I go in tomorrow at 6am CST.
And I cannot wait to meet Shane...oh and he is guessing between 8 and 8 1/2 lbs. Avery was 7lbs 14oz. So, I guess we will see! And I ended up 1-pound under my scary weight...WOOT!
I also packed my bag tonight. I CANNOT believe this is over. I'm excited, scared, nervous and it doesn't feel real yet. I feel like a 1st timer all over again!
