The drugs they have been giving Chrissy to ripen her cervix have stimulated her body into going into labor by itself. I guess around 1 am Chrissy's water broke, not nearly as gross as you think its going to be, actually it was a little funny seeing it happen to a drugged up pregnant woman. Since that time though Chrissy's contractions have been increasing and getting stronger. The contractions at around 5:30 am had been running at about every 3 minutes. Chrissy decided then to get her epidural. She seems to be feeling great now, and She is sleeping a whole lot better too. Just before the epidural the measured her again Chrissy was measuring about 4 cm dilated and more effaced, I guess that's more from the 70% she was earlier. With the way things are looking they may not need to use pitocen.
There is the scoop from 6 am February 20th
