Relaxing

Up to 5 cm, but they are going to stop the pitocin to give Dane a little break. Every time they increase the dosage, his heart rate goes down. So they are stopping it until 5 am to give him a little time to regroup. They also gave Lindsay an additional IV fluid (basically sugar water) to help her and the baby because they haven't had any food (and no sleep) in almost 24 hours. Lindsay is resting now and hopefully things will go smoothly after 5 am. The epidural is working fine as Lindsay feels no pain.

  2. I was hoping he would be here when I got up to check the blog. I may stop by when I come to get my bloodwork done. Not much longer. You guys have been in my prayers all night.
