Thursday, 10:00 a.m.
Surprisingly, we both had a pretty good night's sleep considering the anticipation for today (Thursday). That may be the last full night's sleep we'll have for a while!
The doctor just completed the amnio and is sending the sample to the lab. It will probably be one to two hours before the initial results are back. If the initial results are inconclusive, it will be another 3-4 hours before we will have the "final" results. If the baby's lungs are developed, they will then start the process of inducing Susan.
The first step in the process will be to give Susan a pill that will help to soften the cervix. The pill takes 12-24 hours before it takes effect, so we will likely have some waiting to do. Eventually, they will give her medication that will start contractions and (hopefully) move her to delivery. If they find that Susan is not progressing, they will stop the process and do a C-Section.
We'll keep you posted as we get additional information.
