WORST NIGHT EVER!!!

So yesterday was shaping up to be an AWESOME day!!! Dave took me for some mexican food( I had been craving it and I heard it can possibly start labor), then after that we went to babies r' us and got our bassinet/playpen. That was the last big thing we needed for the arrival of Kassidy. We then drove up to my ex mother-in-laws house to get Kruz for my neices 13th birthday party. My sis-in-law had a BBQ and of course cake...best part of any birthday party. She made the cake though and it is SOOOO yummy, it is chocolate with peanut butter frosting and she put twix bars around the side and reeses peices on the top.... soooo good!!! At the party she gave me some castor oil since I have been wanting to try it to see if it would help me go into labor.... I am so done with this pregnancy and just wanna see my baby LOL.

Well on our way home Dave and I discussed that it would just be easier for me to do a shot of the stuff and chase it with cherry coke, so we stopped at the gas station and got home at about 7. I poured the 2 oz. in a cup(that is what every website I looked at suggested for the amount), I had no clue that it was sooo thick!!! Of course I couldn't do a shot of it with it being that thick, so I mixed it with milk..............It was AWEFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I gagged it down and drank my cherry coke as fast as I could. After an hour I felt nothing so I told Dave that nothing was going to happen, even what it is usually meant for, which for those of you who don't know... it is meant to make you poop. Dave started joking around that I was going to have the worst diarrhea and he would make fun of me for thinking this would work and all I got out of it was the shits. We went and laid in bed at 9:30 and nothing was happening so I figured I was in the clear. I turned off the tv at 11 and by 11:30 my stomache was making the worst noises I have ever heard it make before :(. I am not going to go into details, but I was in the bathroom ALL NIGHT LONG!!!! So embarrassing because Dave woke up to me crying on our bed and I told him what was wrong... for those of you who know me, I have never even farted in front of him before, so telling him what was going on killed me!!!! We started to get worried since Kassidy wasn't moving at all and I couldn't keep water down, at 2:30 Dave said we were going to the ER if i couldn't hold water down and if my fever didn't break... so luckily it did and I was able to stay out of the bathroom and get 2 hours of sleep. So moral to the story is DO NOT TAKE CASTOR OIL EVER!!!!! It was the WORST night I have ever had!!!! So no more trying any old wives tales for me... I am just going to wait the 7 and 1/2 days that I have left.

I have a doc appt. on Wednesday, so hopefully I have dilated more... I will keep ya all posted :) wish me luck!!!
