Birth Update

Hi All. This is Adam.

We pulled up to the hospital this morning around 1:45 am. Andrea had been having regular contractions since about 5:00 pm yesterday afternoon and decided that it was time to see the doctor. Sure enough, Andrea was dilated to a 3, and the baby had moved down. At around 3:30 am Andrea decided it was time for the epidural. The anesthesiologist was terrific; Andrea said the catheter hurt more than the epidural!

Nurses and doctor think he'll be here this afternoon! She's currently dilated 9 cm and may even be 10 cm. We're mostly waiting for him to drop into her pelvis so she can start pushing. We'll keep you posted!
