It's Beginning.

|
Robyn just left the doctor's office and we have good news.

She is currently 1.5cm dialated and 75% effaced. In laymen's terms, her body is begining to start the process...slowly, but it is begining. She has an appointment this afternoon and the doctor is going to begin "gentle" inducing--still not sure what that means. She has her second appointment on Friday, again for a "gentle" inducing.

If nothing has happened by then, we have an appointment at the hospital on Wednesday (9/13) at 7:30am to induce. That one will be for real. Woohoo.

The doc said he will be here Wednesday for sure.

I will keep updating as much as I can. Keep your fingers crossed.

Brilliant stuff, that "gentle" induction business!

Wishing you and Robyn all the very best in the coming week. The waiting will undoubtedly drive you crazy, but it's SO worth it in the end...and the minutes, hours, days go buy in a blur once he's here. Truly. I'm still stunned that Beckett has been with us for more than 52 hours now. That the entire pregnancy is behind us. That years of waiting to be a father has suddenly been surpassed by the real thing.

You both will be brilliant parents. And a week together before baby comes will be a gift that will disappear in a blink of an eye; just enjoy the time together; quiet moments. And trust that the boy will soon be here!

Oh, and thanks for the kind note about Beckett's arrival. His Blog-u-tation is already climbing sky high!

Cheers,
Christian
