Getting Closer

4:15 pm - Water broke during a cervical exam, monitor put directly on the baby

5:00 pm - Baby's heart rate has had several irregular drops. Megan put on oxygen. Pitocin drip stopped. Nothing to be seriously worried about.

6:15 pm - Pitocin restarted. Megan and the baby are doing great. Got some good contractions going.

7:15 pm - Megan's off the oxygen, contractions are nice and strong and Megan feels great thanks to the epidural. Baby and mom are still doing fine, no worries here (just one very antsy dad!).

Hi, Antsy Daddy. So glad to get another report. We, so far away, feel so helpless. We love hearing all the details, and especially that labor seems to be going well now.
