Holy crap that escalated fast! Pit contractions are NO JOKE. I could barely breathe and definitely wasn't able to manage them. I really wish I'd been able to use the shower/labor tub to see if that helped at all. Oh well, I gave it my best but I'm now happily resting with an epidural on board. They won't check me again for a while because of my ruptured membranes so I'm not really sure where I stand. My doc thinks we're looking at welcoming the little one in the 'wee hours'. I can't wait to meet him!!
Update: family got here, things got busy and I forgot to push the send button... Just checked and I'm fully dilated !!!! Laboring down for a bit then it's really go time!!
