The Big Day
Here I sit, hooked up to all kinds of gadgets and gizmos with a very growling stomach. Last night’s preinduction got me 50% effaced and they started the pitocin at 6:20 this morning. So far it only feels like menstraul cramps, uncomfortable but no pain. The doc is coming back after a surgery at around 8:30 to break Logan’s water which should move things a long even more.
Ambien was my friend last night because these hospital beds are sooo not comfortable. Especially when you have three monitors on your belly (one for each baby and one for my contractions) as well as a herapin lock and a blood pressure cuff. Going to the bathroom or switching sides to sleep on was a ton of fun!
Enjoying the ipod tunes that Brad and I put together for the hospital. They have been keeping me relaxed and I keep having moments of being tired and drifting off for quick 30 second naps. Brad’s been wonderful staying with me all night and the room is about to be filled with love in the next few hours as Karen, Dusty, Chris, Mom and Wendy arrive.

Been waiting all day for the good news and I’m hoping as I type that healthy little cries are erupting into this strange, new world. I’m so happy for you that you carried them to term, Dawn. Hooray! Will check later on to see if pictures are up.
Love,

Hope everything went well and everyone is healthy and happy and snuggled up together at home. Thinking of you all!
I wish that I could be there, but I am keeping you all in my thoughts & prayers.
