Just got a text from Rachel. She is in L & D, her fluids levels were low again when she went for her ultrasound so they decided they had to induce her. She is just waiting on the pitocin now. She is still hoping for a natural child birth so please keep her in your thoughts, and I will update more as I hear more.

GL Rachel and can't wait to meet your LOl

4:45 no progress dispite hours of regular contractions. Uping pit now. Please continue to keep her in your thoughts as she is stil hoping to deliver naturally.

7:00 still minimal progress only half a cm. Rachel elected to have her waters broke and will see where it goes from here instead of upping the pit more.

9:00 am cst Long hard labour. She got an epi about 1 after about 10 hours of back labor. So not easy but she got her vaginal birth so she is happy. Baby Girl born at 6:50 am, 6 lbs 11 oz 19.5 inches long. Named Reese Isabelle!

Hi ladies!! Am doing great so far, been on pit about an hour and am having contrax about 2 min apart, only very mild so far. Was already between 2-3cm and 50% effaced when I checked in, not sure where I am now. Been walking and drinking juice and trying to get things moving so that they don't have to up the pit. I am at peace with the induction and am trying to stay positive and calm - doing well so far, we'll see about if that lasts when things intensify
