Checked into the hospital and the membrane stripping this morning got me to 4cm, 50% effaced. They started a super low dose of pitocin about 30 mins ago.
My dr. gets here in about an hour, so then I'll get checked again and make a plan for breaking water and epidural and go from there.
Just hanging out watching Empire Records for now. I forgot how much I love this movie.

Does anyone read between the lines on notes from daycare?
Today's note says: "V is challenging himself by trying to serve food from the serving bowls. He is very proud of himself when he does it." But I read: "V keeps grabbing the serving spoon and trying to serve himself, Usually, the food ends up on the table or the floor."
I tried to knock off the knob with a hammer & it only took the knob/plate off, the locking part would not budge at all. Then I took a crow bar to it to no avail. Then I sat on the ground & kicked it in with both feet. That broke the jamb but worked. I started to worry that I wouldn't be able to get it open at all. DD1 was saying to go get the chainsaw. Lol. DD2 & DD3 were bawling & screaming so that sent me into a greater panic because I couldn't really tell if DD4 was OK in there. I was a bit afraid DD4 was right behind the door but she said she couldn't get down and low & behold she was stuck on the linen closet shelf.
In a desperate attempt to get P to actually sleep tonight we gave him a 6 oz bottle, half formula half BM. He promptly projectile hurled the whole thing all over his new sleep sack.
I just want to laugh. Reflux? Formula intolerance? Who the eff knows anymore? I give up.
I survived a nine-hour meeting in which I had to present four times today. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted. Ahhh.
DS fell asleep at 6:50 and is still asleep. He usually cat naps and wakes up for bath and another bottle. If he doesn't cat nap, he wakes up at 9:30. But now it's 10:30. He hasn't eaten or been changed since 5:40 pm and is still in jeans...but he is sleeping so soundly that I don't want to wake him. I have a feeling I'll be waking up to feed him 20 minutes after I fall asleep.
I'm really fucking annoyed at my H. I have to teach next Tuesday and then handle another work thing that night. Not have been on our Cozi calendar for 3+ weeks. Tonight he tells me that he has a work thing that's been scheduled since late Juky. BUT THEYRE NOT ON THE SHARED CALENDAR. And I say, okay, so your getting the babysitter? And he says, no, dads don't traditionally do babysitters.

DD started crying in her crib. She sometimes lets out a few cries but then stops. It didn't stop so I went in her room to check on her. Her leg was through the crib rails all the way up to her thigh. It took a bit to get it out and she was not going to be in her crib. I held her for a while and tried putting her back and she lost it. I brought her into bed with me knowing she would be ok but also that I would get no sleep. Ugh. I waited a bit and put her back in her crib. She is ok for now. Poor girl.
We are moving back to States (Chicago specifically)! DH got the bosses approval yesterday on his proposed new work arrangement. We won't be moving back until June 2016 when DD is done with her first school year, but we finally have a date.
We moved over here for a 2 year contract, 5.5 years later we are finally moving home. I am pushing for the move, I know DH could stay longer, but I am done.
