Geeta and I entered the hospital 24 hours ago. Since then, she has received two doses of meds to induce the baby. She started contracting regularly at about 3:30pm yesterday and has since been contracting through the night, although most times without feeling anything.
As we enter Day 2, everyone’s spirits are high and we both got a fair night’s rest. She’ll probably recieve another dose of meds soon.
Actually, I think we are both somewhat relieved the baby wasn’t born yesterday, as yesterday’s date marked the 20th anniversary of Bill Buckner’s blunder in Game 6 of the ‘86 World Series, as well as the 152th anniversary of the Charge of the Light Brigade. A rather dubious date all around.
