This afternoon we dropped off DS 1 & 2 at my parents house and then went out to dinner. We'll be up early (I mean i haven't slept well in weeks anyway so oh well!) to head to the hospital. I've never had to be induced before so I'm a little nervous!

I honestly didn't ask a lot of questions at my last appt because I thought there was no way I wouldn't go into labor on my own! I've been having contractions for weeks, just no pattern. My appt was Friday so I'm not sure how much progress I've made since then.

Iโm struggling between feeling like I have 1 billion things to tie up at work before maternity leave and not giving a F... Exactly this. And I was a bit more...weโll say โbluntโ...in some emails this morning. I have no time for other peopleโs procrastination, but Iโm working out of two planners right now because my to-do list spans calendars at this point. ๐๐ซ

Because this pregnant hasn't been exciting enough I'm currently at the hospital with a kidney stone. I almost passed out from the pain while driving myself from work to the hospital. Being monitored in L&D at the moment because my BP was high due to pain so ER freaked out and sent me over. I passed the stone while sitting here but still having some pain and bladder spasms. Baby girl looks good on monitor and BP is improving. Just had my cervix checked for first time ever (despite being a TTM) which was not fun. They think I'm a 2 but not effaced. Hoping to go home after monitoring.

Oh, tngrl3, Iโm so sorry about the stone. I get those every few years and had one when I was pregnant with DS. Iโm so so happy that it passed without causing LO any trouble, and I hope that the pain comes to a close soon.

CharlieB I had one with DD1 too. Plus a few others that have required lithotripsy, a stent, and laser to break up when not pregnant. They are awful! I'm glad this one passed pretty quickly though.

Lots of BH today. TMI but I also randomly had diarrhea earlier. Iโm remembering why the last few weeks are so crazyโI question every little thing my body is doing. One of these days itโs going to be the real deal you guys!
I restocked my dates supply today at the grocery store ๐ฌ

Just solo power walked for an hour around the neighborhood, listening to the birth hour podcast. It was so relaxing! โจ

I actually think itโs worse this time around (the โis this a sign of labor?!?โ mindset) because I so desperately want to go into labor naturally just once (had to be induced with both of the others). Itโs probably a be careful what you wish for thing but I canโt help it.
I also really want to try to go unmedicated this time and I have it in my head that itโll be easier if I am having โrealโ contractions as opposed to Pitocin-fueled ones. Like I believe my body wonโt give me more than I can handle but I canโt say the same for the nurses/doctors who are upping the Pit every half hour.

PW tonight...sorry
I forgot to tell you guys my GBS test came back negative!! Another thing that makes me feel more optimistic about my chances of going without meds, since I wonโt have to be hooked up to an IV the whole time.
