A bad day, a better day and a plan

Yesterday was a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. Much like the one that
Alexander had. I was a mess because I just felt like I was abandoned by my doc, left to flounder in a sea of not knowing what to do and getting little to no sympathy from the world. I am not supposed to complain right? It took me so long to get pregnant that I have no right to complain about a single thing but I just couldn’t take it. Poor David had to put up with my hormonal weeping sobbing mess that I was. He had to ban me from getting any more advice from Dr. Google and to leave the computer alone. (I did play online card games though :-))
After I managed to pull myself together several hours later, we formulated a plan.
Not sure if I mentioned that my doc is out of town on vacation (grumble, are they *supposed* to take vacations?) as has given me over to another doc whom she trusts but I do not know them for the induction. I sent her an email asking if she would ask the other doc if he would do the C/S during the next week rather than waiting until the 25th. The long and short of her response was no. If I chose not to do the induction on the 19th then I needed to wait for her to return and do it on the 25th when we originally scheduled it. I did not like this news. It meant 12 more days. 12 more days after I had already waited 12 more days for the first scheduled induction that it turns out that she forgot to tell me that she was going to be on vacation and wouldn’t be doing it. Grrrrrrrrrrr
OK, so now that I have pulled myself together and stopped weeping like a kid who had her favorite candy taken from her. David and I have devised a plan. Having a plan makes me feel more in control of a situation and not at the mercy of it.

The Plan:
We are going to go in at the scheduled induction time @ 7:45am (YIPES that’s early)
and talk to the new doc, Dr. Meyer. Give him a short synopsis and history of me and then have a discussion about what the options are. I am willing to go forward with the induction if my Bishop's Score shows that an induction is favorable and if they do not use the drug that I do not want. I have also done a Google images search so that I know what the 2 drugs look like so that they can’t pull and ole 'switcheroo' on me. If not, then we wait and hope to see if nature will do things on its own.

I have had a few pully pinchy feelings today. They lasted about 1/2 an hour to 45 minutes and then they were GONE. I have several projects that I can do to keep me busy (thanks for the suggestion Jen) but mostly I just nap, snack, walk, bounce on the ball, play with the dog and play games on my computer.

Ending today as a pretty good day instead of the icky one from yesterday.
