• 06:00 Looks like this is early labor only. They are gonna check her a bit more, offer her some ambien and then send us home for now. #

• 08:44 Fitted with IV just in case. Very regular contractions now. Walking around. Checking in every 30 mins. She prefers standing, so we stand. #
• 09:13 Baby’s heart rate decelerating with contractions. Slight concern. Possibly just a slightly pinched cord. #

• 12:01 She’s taking a nice long nap now. It’s nice to see her at rest. She’s so beautiful. Baby’s heart rate is strong. #
