Night 2 in the hospital, still no baby. Last night I got quite a bit of sleep as checks were only every 4 hours and I was free of monitors. Tonight I'm on a low dose of pitocin to try to ripen my cervix as we have had no change in 2 days, so I am fighting a high blood sugar due to the stupid glucose drip and can't get comfortable hooked up to the monitors, plus checks are every 2 hours instead of 4. I got 3 or 4 hours asleep but my back is killing me and my husband is out cold so I can't ask him to help loosen it up. I just want to cry...
I came dilated to 3, got almost to a 4 the first day, then was given a foley overnight when nothing really progressed (still not sure why as a foley only dilated you to a 3 or 4). Was a full 4 today and felt like I was getting decent contractions but even on the full dose of pit, they would die down anytime I got up and walked around. The plan is to break my water when the OB gets here in the morning but I think baby is way to high and the monitors are making that worse because she keeps pushing up and away from them.
Oh and I was having near constant regular contractions coming on, but I'm positive they were BH because they weren't more than uncomfortable but my OB was positive I was going to progress fast. I'm really starting to distrust her advice as my whole pregnancy has progressed contrary to what she has predicted lol (to be fair I have some unusual issues but an otherwise perfectly healthy pregnancy and baby according to the huge amount of testing I had to have)
