This afternoon I was leaking a bit (sorry, TMI) but was having no real contractions.

It kept going through the evening so I called Labor & Delivery at 10:00pm and the nurse said that I should come in to get checked.  So, now I’m in Triage Room 5 with a fetal monitor on and no idea what’s next.  Just waiting for someone to come examine me.

I’m bored.  It’s a full moon and the docs are backed up.  No one has come in yet.

I’m being admitted.  It’s confirmed that my water bag is broken and they’re putting in an IV soon.

Apparently, 10 other mothers are in labor and they don’t have a fancy L&D room for us.  SO, we are stuck in Triage Room 5 until someone delivers and moves out.  Luckily, I’m not in active labor yet so we will just have to chill here for a bit.  In the meantime, poor Jes gets no comfy bed to take a nap.  It’s gonna be a long night.

We got moved to a room and Jes is already asleep on his bed. Nurse gave me a quick intro to the interactive TV and it has cable. Woot. It’s already a step up from our home system.  Just waiting to see if labor occurs naturally now. Time for a nap.
