In the Hospital

Well, we are finally checked into the hospital - officially at 2:30pm. We got into our nice room and are settled in for a long night. It has been a long, rough day already to say the least.

The staff is great, the food - not so much. But, Dana is making progress little by little. She is currently hooked up to the monitor to check both her contractions and baby's heartbeat. His heartbeat fluctuates a lot, which the doctor and nurses say is a great sign. Dana's contractions are now 2-3 minutes apart - if that. But...we still have a long ways to go.

Vicky, Dana's mom, is on the way from Indiana - driving because the train is closed due to flooding in Wisconsin. She may make it for the birth at this rate. :-)

I will keep you posted with details and insights as things change. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers tonight!
