March 4th is IT

We had our last doctor's appt. Monday. Everything looks pretty good, still have some protein and minor elevated bp but it seems to be stable. So the decision was made my the doctor to schedule an induction for March 4th. I go in the hospital on the 3rd to receive some medication to help my cervix thin out then on the morning of the 4th I will recieve the induction medication and then we WAIT. It could start righ away or it could still take a while, not sure. Sometimes women don't respond to the pitocin and the process can be long but we are hopeful that things will progress nicely. I am already 2cm dilated and 50% effaced (thinned) so that it a good sign that it won't be too difficult. I am on bed rest however I have started to get out in the afternoons and take a walk, partly because I hope she will come on her own and partly to save my sanity. Bed rest truly is no fun! I'm so bored...
The doctor said she had dropped quite a bit as well so I am confident that she is also doing what she can to get into this world and be with her very anxious parents.
So thats the update. The next time I write I will be introducing our little baby girl!
