She has been given her 3rd round of this suppository. And I'm sorry that I'm a little miscommunicatory (big word, but is it real?) today.
The suppositories are to try and thin her cervix and dialate her. Not jumpfire contractions. That will come in the form of petocin once we have gotten her to a well thinned and slightly more dialated state.
At this point the estimate is around 12:30 am before they would push the petocin. (3rd suppository was administered approx 10:30 pm and there is a hospital mandated 2 hour wait before the petocin can be pushed.)
Jess is currently getting some rest between contractions and trying to get her body to relax. She is still slightly dazed at our day. I am sure this blogs will be read in a month or so just to try and remind her what was happening. The magnesium they administered for the preeclampsia has made her a little sleepy, so she's letting it help her quest for rest. :)
As far as things are now, I am keeping watch over my dry-mouthed beauty and feeding her ice chips as often as she requests. :)
OH, on a great note, the doctor okayed Jello for Jessica, which seems silly, but is a small victory in the fight for food, for energy.
