Waters broken

The senior doctor who had Hayley admitted saw her at 4.30. As the cervix was soft enough but still not very dilated he decided to break her waters. It was neither very easy nor comfortable.

We will move rooms soon to a proper delivery room.

Hayley is getting stronger pains about every 5 minutes but it is still early stages. She is bearing up very well and is still smiling. I'm so proud of her. (She has only cussed once!)

The doctor thinks it could take 8 - 12 hours to reach establihed labour which is only 3 - 4 cm.

You might yet hear from us again before Bump appears.

Hello from across the pond...eagerly awaiting news of the arrival. I keep checking every few hours and can't remember what the time difference is.

Sending lots of good energy to Hayley...she'll need it. Hope she doesn't get too tired before the grand entrance of the wee one.

It will all be worth it in the long run,

love, the yank fairy godmother
