Update 5

Epidural time.... (or, as Adam likes to say: 'epirdermal' if you want some entertainment, check out his blog posts from the hospital last fall- much more interesting than my short blurbs).

Apparently the epidural makes a major difference in the pain levels during contractions. To quote Sara, in reference to a contraction as I was looking at the monitor: "I just had a contraction?".

Drugs are good.

Now lets hope that baby comes soon. We are most ready to meet him.

Oh yes! Everything changes once you get the epidural going! Oh I hope things progress somewhat quickly so we can hear of this little guy's arrival! Your hearts are about to burst. You love him already, but just wait until he is in your arms. You will fall in love like you never have before. It's amazing!
