Third false alarm.

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.
