Brody is coming soon!

This Boy is coming Soon!!! And we couldn't be more excited! I went to my doctor's appointment yesterday. After the doctor checked me he said he thinks it be best if we induce labor on Monday April 20th! So I was shocked when he said that... I didn't think they induced unless you asked for it. He said I'm not progressing at all, that the baby is getting BIG and that he is really low! So Sunday night I will spending the night at the hospital and they will insert cervidel then Monday at 7:00 A.M. they will give me pitocin! So it kind of takes the surprise out of it...but it's also nice having it planned. I can prepare for it completely! So Pretty soon we will see what this baby looks like and get to hold his little body in our arms!!! So unless he decides to come sooner he will be born Monday April 20th! Have any of you or anyone you know had the Cervidel inserted?? I would love to hear something about it! I've only seen it done on Baby story a few times.
So Me and Billy are just enjoying and savoring every last moment together before Brody comes! Pictures of our Baby to come soon!!!

I had Cervidel inserted with Noah and it was no big deal! I went to the hospital at 6:30pm on a Sunday and got the Cervidel inserted about 8:00pm and my water actually broke at 12:00pm and had Noah at 10:50am! Not that you needed or cared to hear that, but the Cervidel is NO BIG DEAL! Good luck Lace! Can't wait!

Good luck Lacey! It is such an amazing experience - I am so excited for you. I had Cervidil inserted with Owen and it really is quite simple. It is basically just a tampon type thing and you can't even feel it. For some reason it didn't do it's "magic" on me like it should have. They gave me the potocin and that was what didn't agree with Owen. His poor little heart rate would jump all over the place. Therefore, c-section for us! It is pretty rare though, so I am sure you are going to do great! Just don't worry and stay super relaxed, ask lots of questions and breathe!! He'll be here soon!!

I was induced with cervidel. It was no big deal. Same as above commenter, its like a tampon type deal. It was really nice being induced honestly. My labor and delivery was the BEST BEST part of my entire pregnancy. It was so relaxed. Bring some movies to watch (seriously)! Have fun and good luck!!

Yay! So exciting. April 20th is a GREAT day! Madi was born that same day and I was induced too! However, I didn't have a cervidel thing. But I really liked being induced..you know when the baby is coming, and they control how fast you progress..it's great.
Can't wait to see pictures of your cute lil Brody!

Judd was a week late so they induced me. I didn't have Cervidel inserted I took cytotec orally. I think it's pretty much the same thing. It was not bad at all. Good luck!

Tyler and Rachael said...

Wow--what news! I had all of that done with Abigail since she was over-due---it all works out great and everyone will be just lovely to you at the hospital and take super super good care of you. Do you know which doctor and mid-wife are on staff for Monday? We are definitely looking forward to meeting Brody.

Brian is so excited that you are having Brody on Monday, because he guessed you were gonna have him on the 20th, so we will just see if he was right on the weight and length too!!

Lacey,
I know that you dont know me. I found your blog and started reading. Mostly because we had the same name. I cant tell you how much I have enjoyed reading it. You are too cute! I know that seems weird but I just looked at it because we have the same name and I kept reading because of how sweet you are. Good luck with your baby thats awesome! I hope this doesnt scare you!

ps: I love your name ; )
