Week 41 - Home from the Hospital, Still No Baby

So, here's a story... We just left the hospital from our scheduled induction (scheduled because I wanted to have the baby before Christmas and I've progressed into a favorable position for it). I told the doc I was having second thoughts about being induced. She asked me a bunch of questions and told me that even though an induction is not medically necessary that it poses no additional risks than if I came to the hospital in full-active labor. Then, when I told her I was really conflicted and stressed, she asked "Do u want me to tell u what to do?" I said "Yes." She said "Go home." So we did!

To add icing to the cake, we were up most of the night timing contractions that went away when I got in the shower at 3am. Too crazy!!


Can't wait to share this story with the baby!
