I’m in the hospital for my induction hooked up to monitors and IV. Luckily they had plenty of room this morning so we actually got here a little early. Now Im just waiting on the on call OB to give the induction orders and I hope he hurries up. I’m impatient 😋
When they checked me they said I was only 1-2cm dilated which is kind of a bummer bc they thought I was 2-3 at my last appointment. Oh well! We are watching a movie and trying to relax.

They just placed the foley bulb and cytotec (no idea if I’m spelling this correctly) so now we wait and see. It still seems a bit surreal that I’ll be having a baby sometime in the near future!!

Contractions started pretty much immediately after the foley was placed so that’s good. They’ve been pretty steady at 4-5 min apart. Not too terrible yet, but I quickly remembered what a joy contractions are haha!

So the foley fell out after just an hour and I was at a 4. Contractions still pretty regular, but baby needs to get her head down lower. Hopefully in another couple of hours they’ll break my water and then things can get going!
I’m also really hungry. I can’t stop thinking about chips and salsa 😜

OB is estimating a midnight delivery which isn’t bad since that’ll be about 11hrs after we started. I’m so not a night person though and am already tired thinking about it.

EXCITINGGGGG Can YH or someone else run out and get you some food and throw it in the post partum wing’s fridge for after baby? I don’t want you to be ravenous and have nothing be open! |

Maybe you’ll go from 5 to baby in 30 mins too! I hope so! And I hope you get some sleep and some food. |

Baby girl Adelaide is here ❤️ We had a really scary half hour around 5:30pm where her heart rate dropped dramatically and I was rushed to the OR for an emergency csection. Unbelievably she recovered just in time and then we were able to continue laboring until she was born vaginally just before 11pm.
Super tired now, but I’ll update with a full story and hopefully pictures in the morning! Thanks everyone for the kind comments today!
