Update on our family

Update on pregnancy and our family.

After my last post on Saturday I ended up getting really sick.  At 2am I went into Labor and Delivery to get IV fluids for dehydration.  Being in the L&D room for fluids when you know your baby is healthy and full term is a little disheartening.  But I was in absolutely no shape to have a baby and was so glad that labor didn't start.  While I was at the hospital Josh and Madison were at home throwing up, among other things....  Ellie had thrown up three times on Thursday and it seemed to pass very quickly for her.  Madison was back to her usual self by Sunday morning.  Makenzie started throwing up Sunday night and into this morning.  I think all of the symptoms have finally left the house.  We are resting up and cleaning and sanitizing everything in preparation for the baby. 

I had a doctors appointment this morning and I am 1-2 cm, 75% effaced and cervix is soft.  The doctor offered to strip my membranes but I opted not to in order to give our family one more day to recover before we have a baby.  I am scheduled to be induced on Thursday morning at 8:30 am.  Pray that the hospital doesn't fill up!
