We did it! 6:00pm came and shot #2 was given. It would take full effect in 24 hours and we were told that we would wait as long as we could. The baby was still producing fluid and I would most certainly continue to leak fluid. Waiting was hard, but other than some contractions on and off during the day, it was okay.
At the evening report we were told that her heart rate had dropped too low and we would need to evaluate her condition in the morning. There was a good possibility that they would induce labor. BUT....the night went okay, with the exception of one moment of panic when Brian awoke to the nurse calling for help and the doctor. They were unable to find her heart rate after it had dropped significantly. Oxygen was out and we didn't know what to think. She recovered nicely, and we were able to breathe again. My IV then became very painful and was changed a 2am. Not fun... In the morning we were back to waiting.
The highlight of the day was when a very uncertain Charleigh came to visit. (Being away from her is the worst part...) She was not really sure why I was at the doctor's, but was quite happy to dance to Baby Teaghan's heartbeat on the monitor. Thank goodness Grandma and Grandpa are taking good care of her!
