Today is the big day! I'll keep updating this as long as I'm able...
9:45-G-ma Deb again. She is dilated to a nine. The doctor is in the hospital. Grandpa, Aunt B and I have moved to the waiting room until his proud daddy tell us to come back into the room to meet him. Sounds like it won't be long now.
7:53-This is Grandma Deb. Jay and Leonard are eating supper. Nurse just checked Chrystal and she is dilated to a 6. She got her epidural at 4:26. At that time she was only 2 1/2. Things are really starting to move along. Pain is still tolerable she has only had to push the button once.
3:17 - They broke my water at 3:00. I'm dilated to a 2. Next step... drugs... (Pain is totally tolerable at this point...)
1:36 - More then a 1, but not yet a 2....
1:27 pm - Not a whole lot of change. Dr. Hugge stopped by to see us around 11:00. She said they would try to break my water when the contractions started to get a little more uncomfortable. She thinks he'll be here sometime in the middle of the night. I'm starving. I enjoyed a nice cup of red Jello and a Sprite around noon. Yuck! Here's Dad catching up on his celebrity gossip...
10:56 - Apparently I'm having contractions every 2 - 4 minutes -- I've yet to feel anything...
10:53 - His "bed" is ready and waiting...
10:35 - I'm hungry...
10:30 - Pitocin started (No cervix medicine needed!!)
9:30 - IV in place after 4 tries and almost passing out / throwing up
8:00 - Arrived at St. John's
6:45 am - We were called for an 8:00 am induction
