Weekend update

No...not of the Saturday Night Live variety.

Crystal and I went to the OB/GYN on Friday. The doctor "stripped her membranes" again. For more info on that click HERE.

They also said that if the boy isn't here this weekend that we would schedule an induction for Monday. As it is very late Sunday night, we are assuming that this will happen tomorrow!

The way Forsyth Hospital does this is to put you on a waiting list. We are to stay at home tomorrow awaiting a phone call. If there is room, we will receive a phone call at 5am, 9am, 1pm, or 5pm tomorrow. We have one hour to arrive and induction will begin. Apparently, induction is more painful that "regular" labor. The drug that is administered, "PITOCIN", causes stronger than normal contractions. We we're all hoping that it wouldn't come to this, but, the boy seems adamant that he is not quite ready to see us yet.

I am hoping that all goes well tonight/tomorrow and the next post you will read is about the arrival of Sam!

We really appreciate your thoughts and prayers!

I hope to update soon.....come on Sam!
