False alarm...... No baby today............
The hospital called this morning and said due to the storm there was a huge influx of women that spontaneosly went into labor and that my induction would be cancelled until tomorrow. I was fighting back the tears with the lady.....then I suddenly just turned into hormonal angry lady and told her, "well you just might see me in there anyway".
By 11:00 a.m. I started contracting hard about every 5-7 minutes. I had my mom come get Emmi. and all I could think of was that I would show them that I would have this baby. If they weren't going to put me into labor....I would do it myself.
I ran errands. Picked out some porch furniture, got some Great Harvest cookies, and hung out on my porch timing my contractions.
Well now it is 7:45 p.m. and still contracting every 7-10 minutes and not progressing at all. I guess tomorrow is the day. I am thinking this little boy just wanted to be a Gemini and not a Taurus like his sister. I always try to pick my kids birthday's but I guess they just have their own agenda. They will come when the hospital is ready, or when I am ready. In the long scheme of things.....what is one day?
