Good luck, belle0720! Just got back from the doctor. Baby is doing fine, but my cervix just will NOT soften. That's why I have to report to the hospital so long before the induction (4pm the day before for a 7am induction), so they can soften it. Obviously the doc couldn't guarantee anything, but induction is looking pretty likely at this point... Hey little man, as long as we get through the movie tonight... Anyone else ever had to deal with this? 1) have fun at the movie. We want to see if but no way am I leaving little man now with a baby sitter so it will likely be the end of January. 2) are they doing cytotec? I had two doses of it when I went in. They basically hooked me up to the monitor to watch the baby’s reaction and inserted the pill every 4 hours. They did cervix checks every few hours to see how it was going. You probably won’t feel anything and they actually gave me an ambian to sleep that night.

They said it’s either that or some flat tampon-like thing they insert for 12 hours, can’t remember what the name was. Depends on what my doctor feels is best. I’m glad our little nerd is cooperating 😂

Ihad a long experience, but it resulted in a vaginal birth of my daughter. I don’t want to get into too much detail, but good luck.

Anyone else ever had to deal with this? Yesss that’s how my induction was on Monday! I was soft but not as soft as they wanted. They did cytotec which didn’t do much for me and then a foley balloon with pitocin at the same time. The foley balloon/pitocin combo was not comfortable but they did offer me pain medication while that was in which I did take and got relief from! Then I got the epidural once the foley fell out. I hope everything goes smoothly for you!

You guys, our entire theatre is having problems with the Star Wars movie showings. I have friends who have been waiting since 730, ours was supposed to start at 830 (it’s now quarter of ten). They have to redownload the movie because of a corrupt trailer.
I’m totally going into labor before this thing starts, aren’t I?

Anyone else ever had to deal with this? I hope you enjoyed Star Wars tonight! Dh was supposed to go see it tomorrow night through a group we are a part of but backed out since today was his first day back at work and he wasn’t sure he could even stay awake for the movie. He went 2 years ago after dd was born, but I told him a week old is different than a month old. Hopefully it won’t be spoiled for him. Also Fx it softens before induction

We’ve gotten passes already. But this is nuts. Never seen anything like it. Oh boo!! It didn't start until after midnight (and magically changed to the 3D version), I almost didn't make it. Luckily enough people left I was able to stretch out across a few seats. Worth it, but it was completely exhausting. If it weren't for the fact we know our chances to see it were going to be limited after this weekend, we wouldn't have stayed.

N is at his babysitter's and E is with my husband and I'm enjoying at hot bath. I haven't been this relaxed in a long time.

Newborn pics today. I forgot how long these take. First set up and family pics easy, but then he pooped and it took like 45 mins to get him settled for the next pose again.

I can’t wait to get the proofs back! I think she got so many good ones. We did family pics, 2 variations of naked and wrapped up pics including a little teddy bear hat, and a rainbow diaper on a surfboard since he is our rainbow baby too. 🌈 ❤️ Thank goodness we did DD and baby pics first before dh got there from work because I think she was focused and really sweet and probably would have acted out for attention if it had been later.

That's funny because we started with E's pictures first while my mom went to pick up N for us. We went Christmas themed and had matching/complementary outfits for the boys.

That makes sense if N was fresh and not just sitting around for awhile. Ghat is where I think DD would have melted down.

Speaking of meltdowns, dd had an epic one tonight and earlier had lightly bit DS’s head. I had her butt in time out so quickly but I was in tears because this really isn’t how I thought she would act with him. I’m sad about it

I had her butt in time out so quickly but I was in tears because this really isn’t how I thought she would act with him. I’m sad about it I'm sorry. If it makes you feel better, my super great listening little boy has become a total monster since we had E. I've never seen N behave so naughty. Thursday was by far the worst day with him. He was hitting, biting, scratching, throwing pencils (mostly at my H), and time out didn't even phase him. Between E's still shitty latch, only 4 hours of sleep, and N acting like a crazed devil, I was also in tears. I really hope things settle down soon.
