So for a quick update since Phil and I haven't been able to call....
We have been at CUMC since about 9:30 PM (its about 5:45 AM now) with contractions and a stubborn cervix. After a few hours of observation they decided to see if an ambien would help me sleep through the contractions and help me relax so that the cervix would progress. It seemed to have the opposite affect, starting off contractions that hurt like nobodies business about every four minutes! We checked the cervix again at about 2:00 am, and it had dilated to about 2, Cayleighs head is in station 0, and the cervix had moved more anterior. B/c of this they decided I should stay and have a morphine sleeper to take the edge off the pain. I'm still a little woozy from the ambien/morphine combo. The disheartening news is that the contractions seem to be getting irregular again. I'll update and let ya'll know more when I know more; it all depends on how much the cervix is changing! Pray for us! It would break our hearts to spend all night here only to go home without our daughter!
