Blogging Baby Part 2: Hurry up and wait

June 11th, 2008 1 comment

So last night was pretty boring, but things got a teensy bit more exciting around 3AM – fairly powerful contractions kicked in, necessitating the application of some sweet sweet drugs (Stadol). This got mommy-to-be a little more sleep until they wore around 6am.

A quick test revealed little dilation from the previous night, much to everyone’s disappointment, except the contracts, who kept on keeping on. The epidural was attached around 8:15 and another check showed Kandace to be 8cm dilated, which is just silly.

So now Kandace is drugged up a resting relatively peacefully. And now we get to wait.

Update: The just came in and upped the pictosin dose.

Update 2: The doctor is going to break the water around 10:30AM
