Ok... update. No Olivia yet.

BUT... today I am having contractions. Not really consistent over a long period of time, but having them more often and they are hurting some... not bad, just more intense. I had them every 15 minutes for a couple of hours this morning, then they spaced back out to 30 minutes, then longer. Starting about 30 minutes ago, I am having them again. We will see. I would MUCH rather her come on her own than via Pitocin!

However, I am a bit uncomfortable... and REALLY ready to meet her... so if an induction it is so be it! Tomorrow IS the big day. I will try to update or get Kathy to. My family is about to come unglued... my mom just called to say they are "on their way." They live in a little town in west Texas and it will take them about 6 hours to get here. Kathy's family only lives about 4 hours away so they are going to wait and leave early tomorrow morning. The rest of the family is basically in the area.

Here's hopin' she comes today!

Dawn

How exciting Dawn.....not long to go now! I love that all your familes are rallying around....

good luck with it all, sounds like you are on your way to me....I do recommend lots of walking (although try and get some sleep too - this will be your last chance for a long long time!)

Ok... tomorrow...

We will be posting pics online asap. (We have someone willing to do it as soon as we can get the camera to her in the waiting room.) There are some nursery pics and other stuff there too... so you can have something to look at until she is here!
