She went in last night at 8:00 and we talked before we went to bed at 10:00 and she was in good spirits. She left us a message at 3:30 this morning saying that her blood pressure has gone super high so they have been dealing with that. She left this message this morning: 7:45am update, my blood pressure has come down a lot. I’ve gotten maybe two hours of sleep in between them coming in and doing vitals. Still having contractions but not really needing anything pain wise. I may be asleep at 9 when you get on so I’ll call or update you later. So, Mr. Ollie is taking his time. She was hopeful that labor would progress quickly, so we will see what happens today. Thank you for your concern.

It's 7:25 AM on Thursday and still no baby. She sent a message at 3:00 and one just 15 minutes ago. Here they are:
It’s 3:15am. I am only 5 cm dilated. The doctor just placed an internal monitor to accurately track my contractions and put some fluid back in for Oliver because he’s having some heart beat dips. My epidural is starting to not work. If he continues to have dips, they will have to shut off the pitocin and once they’ve shut off the pitocin, they can’t restart it. At that point, it would be a wait and see if I continue to have contractions or start looking at the possibility of a c section . At this point, I’m so exhausted, I am ready to be done.
7:15am update. I’ve been having hard labor since about 5:00am. The anesthesiologist is coming to give me something. Hoping it knocks me out. May not be awake when you get up at 9. Really don’t feel like talking.
