Pitocin... (put toes in?)

So they just did another exam and it looks like our little one is stubborn just like mommy. (Again, don't tell momma I said that. You know, it's really easy to feel bold when she can't run after me!) No progress yet.

Well it looks like they're going to try the contraction helper pitocin to help labor progress. Hopefully this works but if it doesn't we might be going home tonight to let things progress overnight (Mercy Gilbert is a pretty expensive hotel) because they don't want to keep us here if we're not ready.

Jamie just got about 15 minutes on the yoga ball and it really helped loosen her back and hips. She's been horizontal for almost 8 hours (less the 15 trips to the bathroom). Now she's back in bed and we're hoping pitocin works its magic.

I'll keep you posted.
