A Little Scare...
Last night about 10:30 Amy was complaining of lower back pain. So i gave her a massage and we went to bed at about 11:30. Then at 5:30 AM she came and woke me up (i am sleeping in the famly room) and said her back hurt pretty bad. So she called the hospital and the on call doctor called her back and said we should go in. We arrived at Labor and Delivery about 6:15 AM they put us in a room right away and hooked Amy up so they could monitor the baby's heart and the contractions. Thats right Amy was having contrations about 2 min apart. But she was only dialated to a 1. So they hooked her up to an I.V. and got somthing to drink and said they would try to hydrate her and that should help slow the contractions. After some time they came back and said that didnt look like it was working so they were going to give some medication every 15 min for an hour and see if that would slow her down. after an hour and half they said that she was looking better on the contractions and that they would check her dialation again and if she wasnt dialated anymore we could go home. So she is not in labor her body was just practicing for 12 hours we got home about 10:30 AM and she is just relaxing in bed now.

AMY!!! Can I bring you dinner? I will call you in the morning
Wow! I am glad everything is ok. And I am also glad that Daniel has learned something from your labor class. Good job giving her Amy a massage!!! Your teacher would be so proud!
Sorry about the scare. Take it easy these next few weeks. I'll be thinking of you.
