Update on me

Update on me....

I was in labor on Thursday... Full blown labor. My contractions were 2-3 minutes apart and by the time I got to the hospital in the middle of the night I was 6 cm. They were so positive I was going to have the baby that the midwife asked to have everything set up in the room. Then something happened... It all stopped. No one knows why... and my cervix closed back up to 2-3 cm. For all day Friday they tried various methods of induction all of which did nothing to my cervix... So after 24 hours of labor I came home really defeated with nothing to show for all the pain I went through.

I am having a very hard time dealing with this. Especially since I am still having contractions that are irregular which keep getting my hopes up. Also something else that is bothering me is that I reached 38 weeks today and I have NEVER gotten to 38 weeks in a pregnancy. That is hard for me to handle..

I know God is in control but I just don't understand why he let me go through a whole 24 hours of labor and not have the baby. Please pray for me because I am very down and I feel like the only thing that will make me feel better is getting this over with... And yes I know I am only 38 weeks... and that they baby needs all the time she can get growing. But I just can't take much more of the start stop labor I have been having for weeks.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks guys!

Yup... my cervix closed back up. How frustrating huh?

And unless God grants me some miracle I don't think she is going to be born in the next four hours! (No tax deduction!)

I am still having contractions which is soooo frustrating. I am trying hard to trust God on this one. But boy is it so hard!
