Induction Date Set - Mixed emotions.....
aso0523 posted:
Hi Ladies,
I had my 37 week appointment today, and she has scheduled my induction for August 11th at 7:30 AM. YIKES!! That is 13 days away....we will see if I make it that far. With #1 I was sent from my 38 week appointment, so that will be the true test.
I am so excited and also scared. Going from 1 child to 2 will be a huge adjustment and I am worried for how my little girl will handle this. She knows it is coming, but I don't think she understands that it changes the dynamics of the family and she no longer will be the 100% center of things. I just hope I can do a good enough job to not make her feel lost in this whole process. I am crying as I write this because I have never loved someone the way you instantly love your baby. As she has grown, she amazes me at how wonderful of a little girl she is and I don't want to lose that. She has been everything to me, and I worry this is going to hurt her. I am sorry, it has been an emotional day today knowing that all of this is going to be done by the latest on 8/11. Any advice from mom's with more than 1 would be so helpful and greatly appreciated.
My appointment went well, except I gained 3 pounds. I have never gained that much in a week and it has put me at 19.5 pounds, so I was dissappointed. It has been so nasty humid here, I hope some of that is water retention. Also, my cervix is still high, but it is soft and I am dialated between a 2 and 3. My OB said the day of induction I can just come in the morning since my cervix is already progressing on its own.
Thanks for listening gals, I just feel a little overwhelmed by these feelings, and knowing a date that it will be all over is kind of putting it in motion.
Hope all is well with all of you! Take care and have a great weekend as August is approaching fast!!!!!!

Hi Angie -
Sounds like you had a great appointment! I hope things continue to go smoothly! I'm sorry I can't offer much in the way of advice of bringing home baby number two, but I know you are a wonderful mom to your daughter, and I know you will do just fine with another little girl. And you will find love in your heart for both of them, probably more than ever before!! Your daughter is at an age that I hope she is excited about a sister and will try to help you out. Enjoy your last weeks with her as your only little girl! Many prayers... keep us posted!

Hey Ang!!! I was thinking about you today. OMG, are we really, REALLY, here? I just can't believe. From one Mom to another, it's amazing how your heart just expands for your other kiddos. Time just works itself out and you'll have it for both. Trust me, everything will be okay. The only thing I worry about is that my DD will terroize LO....lol. She is a total hellion..lol, but I love that about her.
OMG, 8/11 or earlier. Just take time next week for you and DD to spend some time together. Not only will she love it, but it will give you some peace of mind that you did that. I wouldn't worry about the weight, I agree that the heat is just making us retain that much water (that's my story anyway).
I can't wait to read your birth story. Hugs and prayers to you and fam. Just keep me updated!!

Angie, I'm praying for you and your baby girl. I'm sure all will be fine and your daughter will do just fine with baby sister. But I know exactly how you feel. I cryed about the same thing the other day thinking about my DS. I don't want him to feel like he isn't my baby anymore. You and your family will be in my prayers.
