Final Baby Update

The hospital said to come on in and the will squeeze us in. I have no idea what that means but we are showering and packing up! Baby should be here by the end of the night if not tomorrow morning. :) Hope everyone has been able to stay safe, cool and dry!

We will be thinking about you and hope the rest of you get power very soon!

Baby Update

So we just talked to the hospital and we have to call at 6am Monday morning to hopefully take us in by 7am. Not sure exactly why but there are two other people in front of us.

I plan on putting up another post to let everyone know when we are actually leaving.

Hurricane Ike and Baby B

Hurricane Ike has passed but obviously left a lot of damage. Fortunately for us, we do not have any damage, just some loose trees. Our power went out around 7:30PM Friday night and came back on around 6PM Saturday. It was pretty miserable...even our floors were wet from humidity. We took about 2 showers to help stay cool.

My mom and Tatiana (with Lucky and Frijolito) stayed with us last night and will stay with us again tonight since their house does not have power. My dad and David may or may not join us. My parents neighborhood didn't get off so easy. Lots of trees knocked down, fences knocked down and water in the house. That's all the info we have on that right now.

Baby B Update

Thank God I did not go into labor during this time. :) This was the first time I was praying he would stay inside. The early signs of labor have started so I got a little worried but luckily nothing yet. I am scheduled to go to the hospital so that they may induce labor. We will be heading to the hospital Sunday night (we have to call ahead to make sure they have a bed ready and if they don't we keep calling until they do) and that night they will start to give me some medicine to soften my cervix. On Monday if everything goes as planned they will give the pitocin to start the real labor and baby should be here by Monday afternoon. If my cervix does not react to the drugs this could mean baby is too big and they will deliver him by Cesarean. Either way I am just so excited that he will finally be here!

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers during this rough weekend. :) Next post will hopefully have some real pictures of our new son!
