LAST DAY!!

Tomorrow I go in at 10pm to start the prostoglandin, and then pitocin (if needed) Wed am. Plan is to go home Thanksgiving morning! Please pray we can!
Today I had my weekly, only to discover, ironically, that I have finally developed pre eclampsia, that I have miraculously avoided this last trimester!? Very odd, and all of a sudden, but luckily not severe, like with my son. We are still on schedule for tomorrow, and we all had a little bit of a chuckle, because it came on just in time for my already scheduled induction!
I was told to take it easy today and tomorrow, and eat carbs, because our hospital does not permit anything but ice chips throughout all of labor.
I did start shaking at lunch, tho, and got really bad hot flashes. I actually dropped the cooking spoon I was shaking so bad, but I have no idea what that was! It went away after my "after lunch nap" and I feel fine now.
I slept with the bassinet next to my bad last night, and every time i got up, i just kept thinking, soon she will be in it!! Waking me up to eat every hour, im sure! LOL But I can't wait!
Just shy of 200 lbs. Way more than I wanted, but at least now I will be on my way down!
