Daytime Babies

We got a fair amount of sleep, and now it is shift change time again for the nurses.  Chelsea, who was with us the past two nights, is headed home, and Jacqui, who was with us yesterday, is coming in.  Both of them have been amazing -- proactive, helpful, capable.  An hour or two ago, the chief resident came in one more time at the end of a 24h shift and checked Katy's cervix again (which is much less eventful after the epidural!).  She was 6-7cm, -1cm, and 90% effaced.

The nurses just came in, and the head nurse said, "Numb has its advantages and its disadvantages, doesn't it?"  Katy replied, "Right now, it's all advantages!"

  2. Katy is amazing. Going on 40 hours of labor is not an easy thing! Good luck - we're thinking of you.
