Tomorrow is D-day, or more appropriately, L-Day!
We're ready.. more than ready... and as one point of annoyance... can I just say that it seems unfair to still be throwing up? Isn't being overdue enough?!?! Surely putting that in the baby book.... last time to throw up... 40 weeks and 5 days...
Tomorrow morning Mike and I will call up to labor and delivery between the lovely hours of 5 and 5:30. They will then give us a time that we can be to the hospital to start the induction. Normally between 7-8am according to my doctor. The nice thing about being induced is that my dr. is on call tomorrow. I really have liked him, and it would be nice to have him deliver. Not like he'll be in there until the last 3 minutes anyway, but it's a nice thought. :)
Everyone keeps asking what our "birth plan" is. Honestly? We have none. We're going to take it as it comes. We really like the idea of natural birth, but we're not turning our noses up at an epidural, that's for sure. ;) We have surely read up on everything there is to read, and at this point are just ready to meet our baby. I'm not excited about being induced as I've read that it's a lot rougher on your body that way, but we're just going to take it as it comes.
Healthy Mom, Healthy Baby.. that's our mantra. :)
So... that's the news for now. Hopefully within the next 48 hours or so we'll be able to update with a post that says.. It's a ____!!! :) The hospital does have Wi-fi, so we will be taking the computer with us for updates and what not...
stay-tuned to meet the newest member of the youngman family!

Yay!! :) We can't wait!! :) And really, most birth plans I think tend to fall apart in the process of L&D. You never know what's going to happen for sure, so how can you possibly plan that? You have a birth "general idea" as I like to call them, and that's good enough!
We'll be rooting for you guys! We love you all! :)
Yay! I've been lurking for a few weeks. Couldn't be happier for you. I was induced with my 2nd and it was FAST. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow!
An aside - I know you've recently had computer problems. I am too! What did you get for a new computer? I can't decide. :)
yea! can't wait to hear everything and see pictures of the precious new member of the youngman family. praying for you guys!
Praying for you guys today and can't wait to see pics of that new little one!
Longtime lurker after your touching miscarriage post. I couldn't be happier for you both and can't wait to see pictures of the new little one. Hope all is well! I've been checking for a new post a few times a day. All my best!
