P.P.S - It's 4:55 AM ... just woke up from some shut eye. We thought her water broke but the nurse thinks it only partially ruptured.
It's 1:03 AM - 6/8/2011. We just got admitted to labor & delivery (for monitoring) here at the hospital about an hour ago. It appears our little one has decided that it's just about that time. Mama started experiencing heavy duty lower abdomanal pains starting at around 10:00 PM. As soon as I saw that initial contraction, which was nothing like the ones she's been having, I knew it was time. We got our stuff together while we waited for the doctor to call back. Once we got word to mobilize we loaded up and took off. Mimi came over to spend the night and will have to deal with our Josie monster in the morning. I can't wait to hear about how that's going to go.
It's hard to believe that just 12 hours ago, we were left wondering whether or not she was going to have to be induced. We just had an ultrasound this morning which checked out great. They told us that the amniotic fluid levels were good and that everything was looking normal. The non-stress tested that followed yielded nothing that was to be of any concern. They sent us away waiting for something to happen. And now, something's happened. Whether or not this is the real deal we'll find out shortly. But it's amazing how quickly things can change in a matter of hours. I'll be sure to keep everyone posted.
