In her own words

"I was admitted to l and d around 630pm. 4cm. Contractions about 5 mins apart. May have a baby tonight or tomorrow. Heres the scoop...Had sporadic contractions all day and lots of pink discharge. Then at our scheduled nst had a few dips so they said go home but if more than 4 contractions an hour come to l and d. Had dinner. Contractions were every 5 mins so came back and they admitted."

Update 1:
"It's 642 am here. Last they checked I was 4 cm and 100 percent effaced.  Slow progress but progress. I got the epi around 230 am. And haven't felt any pain since. The lady in room next to me did no epi and I heard her screaming for hours. That combined with increase in intensity of contractions made me pull the trigger and I'm glad I did."

Update 2:
"George was born on 2/11/14 weight 6 lbs 11 oz at 1:11 pm we are all doing great and head over heels!!!!"

Let's wish her luck! Yay amb2013, it's been a long journey but you're almost there. Congrats on your sweet boy!
