Apparently we really are having a baby! I was getting a little worried!
We saw Dr. Charles around noon today and she gave us several options. I know I was looking at her like, "Seriously? You're going to give a pregnant woman options? I can't even decide what to eat for breakfast!" After hearing her out we decided to go home and talk about all of these choices...I'm sure Dave was just about ready to take me to her house and let the doctor help me sort through the quote unqoute options, but he let me talk aloud through each one and we came to a decision together.
So...drum roll please...
I am being induced on Sunday morning at 7:00 a.m. That is assuming he doesn't come on his own before then. I've quickly realized that I have no idea what this process entails and that searching frantically on the internet is probably not the best option. I'm about 2.5 cm dilated and 50% effaced. I have no idea what a balloon catheter is or what it will feel like to have my water broken so if you have induction stories of your own to share, please do! But only if they include blissfully painless memories!
We'll keep you posted on any updates!

Don't worry Mandy it isn't that bad to be induced. I was with both kids and they got here in amazing fashion! Call me and we can talk! I can't wait to see you guys!
Love Nanna
I was induced with both my children due to high BP about 2 wks before there due date. It is not painful (the inducing). Breaking your water is not painful (with my second child I wasn't even sure the doctor had done it - I didn't feel anything!!). With child #2, I was induced first thing in the morning and she came with much surprise to all by lunchtime!! You are in our thoughts and prayers!! Looking foward to hearing how it goes, Kelly
