Last night Tori went to the hospital to be induced but after steady contractions they had to wait it out for a little while with hopes that would stop so they could do an alternative option before the petocin. After about 2 hours she was still having steady contractions...much like the ones she has been having for the last week so they could not administer the alternative to the petocin.
So...late last night they made the call to start a slow petocin drip. At that point Dad, Haley & I decided we would head to their house (a few blocks from the hospital) to get some sleep. Of course Mom wasn't going to leave..we all know that!
As of this morning they had increased her petocin 4 times but she had still not progressed as much as they would have thought. They are now thinking that Luke may come as late as sometime this evening or even early tomorrow morning.
For now we continue to wait. Please keep praying for Tori & Luke. She is getting very discouraged and tired as the contractions continue to get more intense. She has been a real trooper though---I just know this will grow her love for Luke even more WHEN HE FINALLY GETS OUT OF HER!!
As much as I don't wish tomorrow on Tori, Aunt Paige wouldn't mind sharing her birthday with Luke!! We shall see!
Wow. Can't wait to hear the outcome! Praying for her :o)
