The Lunchtime Update

So we're sitting here, still lightly contracting, getting ready to grab a bite (those of us that can eat). Ashley is being very patient, drinking only the clear liquids and eating the jello and Popsicles that are allowed.
The Dr. had our nurse, Kim, start the Pertosin (which I am probably misspelling) to heighten the contractions and speed things up a bit. Ashley is now hooked up to the IV pump and the blood pressure cuff, making her look something like Darth Vader with all the tubes and whatnot coming off her. She's a trooper!
