So if you are wondering the reason for the title, I will tell you why. I had a doctors appointment this morning and got great news. I was dialated to a 2 and 70% effaced. The doctor wouldn't let me go home and was going to start me and deliver me today. I was so excited to think that my little girl would finally be here. They sent me up to labor and delivery immediately.
Low and behold to my surprise an hour and a half later I was being sent home!!.... I know what the freak. Turns out all the beds were full and the two labors going on weren't going fast enough. Now had I been a complicated pregnancy or at risk they would have made me stay but since I wasn't and only 40 weeks and 5 days they sent me home. The only somewhat positive thing is if a bed become available they are supposed to call, or I go back on Friday for a stress and fluid test at which point I will be 41 weeks so they would possibly induce me.
So my hopes were lifted and now squashed, looks like there will alot more walking today and tonight probably mixed with more crying. But I am sure Sydney will eventually get here. Hopefully next post will be a picture of her, but until then I am still prego and uncomfortable and officially broken.

Oh Brianna! I'm so sorry! Sarah came visiting teaching today and told me you were going to be induced. I was so excited for you guys! I hope you're feeling a little better.
This isn't much consolation, but a day after she's born you'll be wishing she could go back in (at least I was). :)
I am sorry that sucks so bad. hopefully a bed opens up.
Oh, Brianna! I'm so sorry. I would be pretty devastated too. HUGS! I hope you're doing ok. She'll be here soon, and then like Maggie said, sometimes you'll wish you could just shove her back in! I felt that way with Caylee when she was screaming and I didn't know what else to do to make her stop. I hope time passes by quickly and that you're holding Sydney soon. Can't wait to "meet" her!
I am so sorry. She will be here soon and will be well worth the wait. I hope you will be able to hold her in your arms this week. I am crossing my fingers and toes for you.
I am so sorry for that roller coaster experience. Remember, we are all thinking about you and wishing you the absolute best! Jill and family
