running on 6 hours of sleep since Sat at 9 am ... ugh.
Sometime around 11:30 pm, Jessica accepted the epidural. She was feeling too far apart from her labor process because of the magnesium. It was making her groggy and she was sleeping, contracting, sleeping, contracting .... etc.
She has since gotten more consistent sleep. And when checked about 1/2 hour ago she had FINALLY progressed past 4 cm. (Our number for most of yesterday.) She is now 8 cm!!!
We will have a baby soon that give her mom the best birthday present ever.
I'm not going to promise another blog from me soon. I may pass it off, or you may just have to wait till she born .... I'll see what I can do.
Off for 1 more catnap before we start the real work ... pushing.

Love you all!!! And thank you sooo much for all your well wishes. I will let you know after she's born if Jess is up for visitors and where to find us. :)
