Aww I'm sorry you have to be induced! I did too after 9 months of planning on a completely natural birth and its really hard for sure so I can sympathize. I hope labor goes fast from hereon out now!

@hergreenapples: I had a fantastic induction:). They're not all doom and gloom! I wish I could go back and do it all over again just to get to experience it again bc it was AWESOME!

Katharine Eleanor arrived at 5:21 this morning. She weighed 8lbs 4oz and is 21.25" long with the biggest newborn feet (3 3/4") anyone here has ever seen!
I got to 9cm and stalled. They needed to keep the pitocin really high (considerably above the usual maximum) in order to keep contractions coming, but that kept crashing baby's heart rate. And then I spiked a fever. After labouring for over 20 hours, I ended up with a c-section. Despite it being everything I didn't want, I was fine with it when they offered it.
Will try to post photos later. Am going to try to nap now.
