Ready or Not, Here She Comes!



Hey, it's Tommy again giving you all another update while Ashley relaxes. We had another weekly doctor's visit today. Ashley has been having minor contractions lately which we can only assume means that we're getting closer and closer.
Upon examination, Dr. Evitt found she was 2cm dilated and 70% efaced and she was still having contractions. So, they decided to hook her up to all of these machines to monitor her and make sure she wasn't going into labor. Obviously, since I'm writing you now, you can probably guess we're not having a baby. However, Dr. Evitt feels like this bun is ready to come out of the oven and offered to induce Ashley this Monday. We don't want Ashley having to go through all this discomfort if she doesn't have to so as long as Dr. E says it's ok, then we are good...to...go!
This doesn't mean, of course, that the baby won't come earlier, but we're definitely going to have our "dream come true" by the end of Monday. Sure that sounded all fine and good when we decided to do the induction, but now we're like..."whoa"! We'll keep everyone updated and try to let you know when Siena decides to join us.

  1. Wow! I can't wait! Looks like June 22nd, eh? Too bad she can't be a father's day gift huh? I'm sure you'll do fine Ashley and just let me know when Siena decided to join us and what you need so we can help you with your new addition ;D

    Lot's of Love,
