In Labor!

It is April 21, 2010 2:05 pm and I am doing some blogging as I breathe through contractions! I started having contractions at 1:00 this morning and we came to the hospital at 8:00- I was 3 cm dialated and 70% effaced , contracting about every 5 minutes then....making slow progress, now 4 cm and 80% effaced, so Dr. Mestemacher just broke my water....now contractions getting less bearable (I don't have an epidural at this point...trying not to...we will see!). So, there are some posts below I worked on earlier this morning (some in the middle of the night while I was at home in labor)....trying to stay on top of things so that I can post about her when she gets here.....
