We went to the OB this morning with high hopes that I had started to dilate, because my contractions were starting to pick up. It took a bit longer to get there because the roads were still kinda bad, but we made it.
The first thing that Dr. Cobbinah asked me was, do you want to be induced on the 29th or the 1st? My jaw dropped. I was under the impression that we had already taken care of this, and had everything set up for the 27th. I guess they called to set everything up with St. Luke's East, but they already had 2 c-sections scheduled that day. I looked at Clint with a "what do we do look" because he is in a friend's wedding on the 1st just outside of Topeka. I asked if there was anyway we could do it the 1st and 2nd. So right now, I'm scheduled to go in at 8pm on March 1st to receive the first round of medication, and then receive the pitocin the morning of the 2nd. I'm going to have someone else take me to the hospital, and then when Clint is done at the wedding, he'll come straight to the hospital. It can't be helped. He's the best man, and I refuse to let him leave Nick hanging! I'm hoping that the hospital isn't full on Tuesday night and they call and say, "Hey come on in!" Then I'll still have him this week!
I've talked to I don't know SEVERAL people today, about my dilemma and how to get the ball rolling with Dade. I've got a plan to get these contractions kicking into high gear. It was suggested by someone that was told to it by her doctor and it worked. No, it's not drinking Castor Oil, which is what my grandma told me to do. That's just gross!
Alrighty, time to get to work...

It's having sex, isn't it? sigh...
Shucks, too bad on the 27th. I happen to know firsthand that babies born on February 27th are bad ass! Good luck to all 3 of you and I hope he decides to get movin' soon!
