Come Out, Come Out, Little Drama Queen!

Still no baby... not for lack of trying, I tell you. I have had contractions since late last night... and all morning. They started getting really uncomfortable and coming about 3-5 minutes apart for almost 2 hours this morning. I went into L&D after talking wiht my doctor.

They kept me for a long time... mostly because my doctor went in for some major emergency c-section surgery for a couple of hours. I was monitored, and checked... and although the contractions are still every 3-5 minutes, my cervix is thinned out a little tiny bit more, but not dilated anymore.

So, they won't do anything to induce me until I get to 3 cms. After that we can try breaking my water, and using a bit of Pitocin to try and make a regular productive pattern of things.

This is just SOOOO frustrating... and tiring. And, I am starting to feel disappointed in myself- which does no good, of course, but still... it's there.

So, at least I was able to get in a good nap today... we tried to walk a bit around Carmel, but I was really to uncomfortable to do much walking. I think the sleep did me better, anyway.

We'll wait some more... hoping for a marked change in duration, frequency, or for my water to just spontaneously break.

Thanks for all the positive vibes, and support... I know I will be able to hold my little princess in my arms really soon! :)

Nope, not this time!

Pregnancy test = negative

Spotting = yes

Cramping = yes

Period = Apparantly - I am calling this CD1.... (cycle day 1 for non TTC speakers).

Also? I need chocolate!! I need coffee!! I need a maid!!

We got chosen to be a Nielsen Family... so we start diarying our t.v. watching today for a week. It's gonna be an endless parade of Disney, Food Network, and Planet Earth! LOL!

Waiting....

Well, I either am having implantation bleeding, or my period is about to start...oh about 6 days early. Either one would explain my lack of energy, stomach sensitivity, and crankiness over the last week. I already took a test this morning.... negative. I is still early to test, though.... I am taking (another) test this weekend if my period doesn't show. So, yeah. Discuss.
