Baby Back

Shannon is back in the saddle again. Or should I say stirrups again. Today the doctor saw her again and said there is no point on putting this off waiting for something bad to happen lets get that baby out.

We check in around 2:00 and they are just now, @7:45 coming to start the inducing of labor. The hospital is completely packed-people in the hallways. Thankfully we scored a room...long story for later...But they are super busy. At least Jon is sitting in a big chair and they have TV!

Shannon is starving she hasn't eaten in a long while, so she just had clear liquid whatever that was. She is relaxed, so far, and feeling fine and the blood pressure is good as long as she is in bed. It was a two flat pillow issue as they were out of pillows so I bought two pillows and brought them back. She should at least get pillows if she wants them! I will leave the other details for her to blog about. (If she ever has time to blog again.)

Tomorrow, MBP should have a real name and be so happy in the arms of her mamma and daddy! In the meantime--prayers welcomed.

We are waiting for the call :) Hope all goes well. Since it was only 3 months ago that I was in those stirrups (they don't actually use them, they are leg things) I totally can empthasize. She and Jon will be fine. It's just a waiting game at this point. Thank goodness they are already there rather than waiting for the storm to get things moving.

Jerry just spoke with Jon, and Jon said that things should start to get moving some time today! It's gonna be a long process, but we're looking forward to the call!
