1 pm, FULL DIALATION!

Well, the Dr is on the way, the nurse can feel the head and Jen feels some pressure. I will try to get some good delivery pics. She is at 9.5 for those scoring at home, the Russian judge only gave her a 9, haha.

Noon, Hour 7


Almost noon. We are sending Mr. Teelpe out to Pooler to let the dogs out and take them to their house. Toby Dog "Who has a rude awakening coming" didn't go out when we left for the hospital this morning. Jen is having contractions every min or two, they are strong but she really cant feel them with the meds. She is happy for all the prayers that people are sending for us, hopefully our new arrival will be here soon.

11 am, hour 6




Here we are, We are calling this picture Popsicle Jen! Contractions are getting stronger, pitosin is at 14, and she can feel her belly tighten on every contraction. They are about a min or 2 min apart. Jen is pain free and cant wait to have our new arrival in the world with us.

10 am, hour 5


Strong contractions every 2-3 min. The epidural is in, and she is getting a little numb. Jen's mom is here and is helping her with the breathing. We are looking for the Dr to come back in around lunch. Will update again in an hour.

Almost 9 am, Hour 4


The water has been broken, I say again, the water has been broken! The Dr. came in and broke her water, she is dilated to a 3 and 75% effaced. She is progressing and things look good so far. No Epidural yet, but maybe in the next hour. Jen says she feels like she is going to the bathroom, and feels some cramping, but the contractions are starting to ramp up. Talk to you guys in an hour.

8 am, Hour 3

Jen is having contractions, they are small and about 10-15 min apart. We are waiting for the Dr. to come in to break the old water. Her friend who is the chief resident "Dee Adams" came in and took a look at everything. She is good and not in pain, the nurses are looking for the pain, ha ha. I will take a pic after everything else. Talk to everyone soon.

7 AM

We are in the waiting mode, they have ramped up the pitocin a little, Jen says that it feels like hunger pains. Last check she was still dialated at 2. Nothing new besides that, we are having fun watching SportsCenter. Will post again in an hour. No new pic this time, nothing has changed.
