3 PM and holding

Lila is not here yet. Jasperina has been laboring for something like 30 hours now. The progress is slow. If it keeps up like this we are going to have to consider C-section. We hope something happens in the next hour or two. If not we are going to talk over options with the Dr.

We gave Jasperina an epidural and pitocin in the hopes of getting things moving. So far it hasn't worked. Jasperina blames my large head. She is probably right. There is not much for us to do but wait and hope and pray.

So far parenting = waiting, hoping, worrying, not sleeping and at this point smelling a little funky.
