Last night the contractions got much stronger - strong enough that we called the doctor. Because of the interval of the contractions, the doctor asked us to come in. Unfortunately, Jen was only dialated to 2 centimeters, so they had her walk for a while, and then sent us home with some Ambien to help her sleep. She didn't sleep however. The contractions kept getting stronger and stronger. By about 3 AM, Jen woke me, and we started preparing to go to the hospital.
She just made it into her room and in her gown when her water broke. After a difficult couple of hours she was able to get an epidural.
So, right now, on Jen's actual due date, we'll probably have our baby! Jen's pretty calm right now. She's at about 5 centimeters. We're both a bit tired. Thankfully, we'll probably have a baby by the time the day is done.
