This morning, we thought this latest set of contractions was the real thing. We even thought there was a little placental fluid leakage. So we dropped our kids off at the home of the fearless and unbelievably generous Heather Siekierski, who has five herself, the eldest being five...
Like I said--fearless...
...and we sped to the hospital. Well, the labor was legit--sorta. "Early labor," but Heather's only dilated to 1.5, 50% effaced, and The Boy 2.0 has only dropped to -3, which means he's still firmly in place. An hour of walking a circuit around the hospital brought more contractions, but no budging of those figures. So we went home.
So the wait continues.

Be reasonably civil. Ire alloyed with reason is fine. But slagging the host gets you the banhammer.
