It's a... delay

What a letdown. After all that we went in today and am still not "ready" to be induced. I had two more hormone treatments and nothing. I just had my third a few hours ago. If you're counting, yes, that makes six treatments so far. And no real progress toward being ready for Pitocin. In an hour I will have a 7th treatment if my tests show that I STILL am not ready. At this point, I will probably never have this child. So if you were looking forward to meeting this kid, I hope you will accept meeting a small babydoll instead, because I feel like that is the closest we will come to having an actual child to bring home.

GRRR

So, still in the hospital, still agitated and bored, still childless. Just to sum it up for you.

  1. Ransom is on the phone with me and as I was updating her on your update she enlightened me that Pictocin is not a nickname you have given to CFB but rather a drug to induce. There is something a little comforting in the fact that I didn't know that little bit of trivia.
    I am sure we are nowhere near as anxious as you are to pop out the wee one, but we are right there with you. Heck, Joye is probably doing some voo doo dance to move things along.
    Can you - or Joye - post the name of the hospital where you are staying?
    I have my phone charged and right beside me waiting for the word. 703-864-5921.
    Hope to hear it ringing soon. Even if it's to chit chat. I am home today so totally available for all chit chat, venting or listening.
    LTSOY!

  2. Ditto on K's comments (the waiting and having the phone by side at all times especially). Oh, and we later decided to nickname the rodent Pictocin. Sorry, but that's just how it's going to be. Keep us posted and call if you need anything!
