Yeah, pretty sure it’s happening now
Our visit to the doctor today revealed that Jen is 1cm dilated. The doctor stripped her membranes, which sounds very exciting but isn’t really, and was pretty sure we would be back at the hospital before the end of the day.
Since then Jen’s been having contractions all day. After 4pm they started getting regular at 5-7 minutes intervals and getting closer together and more painful. Her mum and I have been taking care of her and making sure all is quiet during the contractions
Sarah the DoulaDude arrived at about midnight and we’re now sitting around chatting and occasionally shutting up while Jen contracts.
I’m guessing we’ll be at the hospital before the night is over, but who knows?!
