Stephanie spent the night in the hospital last night. Let me back up.....
She had an appointment with Dr. Jan yesterday. She was 3 cm dilated. Dr. Jan sent her home with the request to 'please call me if you show any symptoms of labor (i.e. - regular contractions, strong contractions, this, that, the other thing) immediately'.
So, about 7:30 PM, we started keeping track of the contractions. They persisted for a few hours at about every 10 minutes. At 9:30, Steph complied with Dr. Jan's request and called her. Dr. Jan then summoned us into the hospital.
She was still 3 cm dilated last night with regular contractions. Dr. Jan gave her a shot of Dimerol and kept her overnight on the monitor. As of this morning, she's still 3 cm dilated, still has the same contractions, but is showing no other signs. So, she's getting released.
Even still, I don't imagine we'll be playing this game for much longer. :)
I saw this posting late this morning and have checked it for updates a dozen times since. The boys are letting you know that they are on their way!
