Giovani Carter Martin

After all the fun my Doctor decided it would be a good idea to induce me so we went in to the hospital about 9:30a on October 19th to start the process. After HOURS of increasing my pitocin level and only dilating 1 measly cm (I started at 3 so I was 4) and after my OB got out of church...he decided to break my water then, go home for dinner. After the whole water breaking fun the contractions got worse (duh) and at around 6:15p the baby was on the move and Carter had to run out of the room to get the nurse, who got the doctor who made it just in time! Giovani was born at 6:20p on October 19th (my sis Shannon's 21st bday) he weighed 7lbs 2 oz and was 19 inches long and just perfect! I feel so blessed to have my family complete and to have Vinny home. :)

Morphine....and Sleep

SO, after my 4th trip to L&D last night, my contractions were 2 min apart lasting about 45 sec....which is what they should do to pop a baby out...but for some reason my lovely cervix wasn't cooperating and after 3 hours I was still only 3cm so I got to be drugged up and sent home.

This really pisses me off! The whole give the pregnant girl some morphine and not tell her she will still be feeling shitty ALL day tomorrow....evil joke! So, I am NEVER EVER again letting crazy hospital people give me anything for pain or anything in general...bastards!

So, I have been sleeping and dizzy all day and I have a headache, my whole body aches and my head is spinning........how am I suppose to take care of my kids like this!? I am VERY not happy with the whole situation! And, btw I am 37 weeks so why the hell couldn't they just do something to induce me??? I swear my doctor is on crack!

That's my ranting for today

Is this baby EVER coming out????

So, here it is that I find myself 37 weeks and 2 days prego...which is really good for me, considering I generally deliver around 36 weeks. And, I have been 3 cm and 80% for like a week and a half!!! WTC? All the baby stuff is ready and so am I so let's get this show on the road! Although, I was thinking in the shower this morning and if he waits until October 17th that would be pretty cool because then all of us october people would have our bdays 6 days apart! Matthieu's is the 5th, Nathan's is the 11th, Giovani's COULD be the 17th, Andreau's is the 23rd and mine is the 29th. I think that would be pretty awesome! But, if Giovani decides to appear sooner, like today....I wouldn't complain!
