Goodnight Moon, Goodnight Fetal Monitor…
Category: NikkiZ's Birth |

Well. I’m all settled. I have my IV in, they gave me my cervical softening tablet (that hurt like HELL) and MrZ is in his jammies. We’re going to try to get some sleep before my next dose at 1am of the cervical softening junk. I’m feeling a bit more uterine activity in the form of cramping and what not, but nothing exciting. NikkiZ is moving around like a maniac, obviously aware something is happening.

Two things of note before I TRY to sleep:

#1 - MrZ left the toilet seat up in the LDR bathroom. I told him that does NOT need to happen again. Just for tonight, lets try to remember to put the seat DOWN. Heh.

#2 - When we left LilZ at his grandparents, he whispered in my ear as he said goodbye, “I’m trying not to cry…” It about broke my heart because I know he is worried about us. Keep him in your thoughts through all of this too.

C’ya in the morning (unless sleep is impossible, then I’ll see you in an hour).

    What an exciting day!!! I think LilZ said the sweetest thing ever. I’ll never forget Marshall (6) at the time, crying as we had to do an emergency transfer to the hospital when our homebirth was not going well.
