6:45am

I actually slept and so did Jes.  Nurse just came in to start Pitocin because I didn’t progress enough this morning.  Oh well, I’m ready to get this party started.  By the way, the room here is pretty luxo. I just ordered my breakfast on the big flat screen TV and it should arrive in a bit.  Not feeling anything yet but the contractions should start soon.  Peanut is a little too comfy in there.  Still working on a name…

Also, it sounded like not only was it a full moon but it was a blue moon.  There are currently 18 women in labor right now and they are on major overflow here.  Getting this guy into a preschool around here in 3 years is going to be a nightmare.

10:00am

Had a pancake and fruit for breakfast.  Pitocin got turned up.  We’re watching cooking shows on the TV.

There’s a nice garden outside our window. Would love to get this show on the road.

1:00 pm

Still no baby. Had lunch – their chocolate chip cookie is pretty good! Just took a walk around the unit to get things going but progress has been so slooooooowwww.  The contractions are stronger but nothing to complain about yet.  Even took a nap.  This is beginning to feel more like a vacation away from my 3 y/o for the day.

3:00 pm

This is ridiculous.  I don’t feel like we’re getting anywhere and the Pitocin is almost at its max level.

I’m not supposed to be looking this comfortable.
