Back Home, No Baby

Failed Induction. It didn't work. After 4 tries of the cervical gel, I hardly progressed. Without any progress they didn't want to give me pitocin. It was a long day and long night. At one point I was having regular contractions and they were intense but then they fizzled out. My doctor came this morning and told me she was sending me home to come back on Monday to try again. She did a quick ultrasound to make sure baby's head was down (we thought at one point he flipped). His head was down but off to the side and he hasn't dropped yet. She will check me Monday morning to see if I've progressed. If I have then they'll give me another suppository and pitocin. If not then she'll just give me the suppository to see if I respond to that. If I don't then I'll have the option of going home again or c-section. She'll have to verify with my perinatologist that it would be okay for me to go home because he really wanted me to deliver in my 38th week. Since I have remained preeclampsia free, it may be okay but I also may just want to have a c-section. She told me to think this through so I'll be able to make a decision when it comes time. As of right now, I'm emotionally drained. Happy but sad to be home. Happy to see Magnolia again. I'll be sure to update if anything should happen from now until Monday. Somehow I've got to figure out a better connection in the hospital because I could not seem to post in there. :(
