Ok so I have been having contractins since Tuesday. I went into L&D on Tuesday night, they sent me home and had me come into the office on Wed. So when I got to the office my heart rate was high like it was the night before (we thought it was from all the walking) so they did an EKG and it came up abnormal and they thought I had a Pulmonary Embolism. I had to have 2 CAT scans and an ECHO cardio gram. Thank God my heart and lungs are fine!! I had to spend the night Wed night in the hospital. I have still been having contractions, I have lost mymucous plug, and I am dialated to 1 centimeter. I have expressed my want for Pitocin to get my labor going srtronger and they keep refusing me. They will not induce me until they feel I am 39 weeks which they say is Tuesday and I say was last Tuesday based on the only date that I had sex in the month of March. They are going by my 8 week ulrasound. We all know that ultrasound is not 100% accurate but I KNOW when I concieved.
Anyway, she is going to strip my membranes today but she will not do anyhing else until I am in active labor. I am just so aggrivated with this whole situation. My DH is on forced vacation because they have already covered all of his shifts and my Mother is using all of her vacation to be here with Elle. PLEASE everyone cross your fingers for me today that this works!!

s, Mama.
thinking of you 
I hate getting tests at the hospital. Hang in there... it will be soon. My worst, most emotional train-wreck of a day was followed by active labor the next day, for both my pregnancies.
