Waiting

Merrilee is awake and alert. Contractions are regular but about half of the intensity that they were. Epidural seeming to wear off a little...and she's starting to feel them a bit....we're going to request them to up things a bit. She is now 90% effaced (was 70% on admission), but still 4cm. So some progress on the one hand, but not much on the other.

Awww...sorry that this is a slow game. =) Brett doesn't want to leave his little peaceful pool yet. It could go really fast once she reaches 5-6. Thank you so much for the updates. lv...

I'm loving reading this! Say, if he waits until after midnight he will be exactly 6 weeks younger than Jonathan. :-) Will be checking in when I get up during the night.... Darlene

Thanks for keeping us posted. We're praying for you and know that it will be a long night but joy comes in the morning! Sneek some ice chips to MeMe...it helps!

Love you three,

Lorinda & David
