Middle of the Night
Dear Baby,
I am just not so sure, kid. Last night, we had Nana and Papa over around midnight, because I was having crazy contractions--more painful than I ever remember before.
So Daddy and I thought you were coming! He helped me time them, and they were very consistent 2 1/2 minutes apart and about 45 seconds each. That's when Dr. Harrison says to get to the hospital!
So we did.
And we came home, just a few hours later.
The WHOLE time we were there, I was having very painful contractions, about every 2 minutes. But when the nurse checked me, I was only dilated to a 1! What?! Even after almost 2 hours of pain in the hospital (not to mention the hours at home), only 1 centimeter.
I was pretty discouraged, and came home crying. So discouraged! I was so grateful to Nana and Papa, though, for coming even in the middle of the night.
Let's do this for real next time, ok?
Love,
Mommy
