A light at the end of the tunnel!

Well, as I guessed, everything is fine with Baby T. Plenty of fluid, no stress, lots of movement. I'm just not having contractions. Like, not at all. So weird...I had lots with Jack, for weeks before he was born, but none now.

In any case, there is a light at the end of the tunnel....even if it's just the little light on the IV pump as it drips pitocin into my arm. Induction! So unless I go into labor on my own beforehand, I'm scheduled to be induced on Saturday at 4pm. Either way, I'll be holding a new baby this weekend! Yahoo! Now quick, go vote for April 12th!

All three of mine were Pitocin babies! In the end all that matters is the healthy little baby!
Heres to a fast labor!! My number 2 was less then 2 hours-compared with 23 hours for number 1.. I like those odds!! Best Wishes!!!

Alex was 9 days late, I did go into labor on my own, but they gave me Pitocin because labor wasn't progressing fast enough. I already chose the 12th, maybe it will happen!

I so enjoyed taking a peek at your blog that I just kept on reading. Your thoughts on Jack and the new baby - how can anyone be as cute and perfect as Jack - brought tears to my eyes because I felt the same way about my second baby. And you know what? I love him with the same incredible intensity as the first one. Enjoy your new little bean.
