Mother's Day -- 4am

After a fairly uneventful two days, it's been a rough night. The various meds haven't been slowing things down as much as they'd like and so they have tried to hook Hill back up to the IV. But they've been having some trouble with Hill's veins and the IV and we're waiting for a nurse to come in and try again. Hillary hates needles and this tends to be a real painful thing. Without a good IV line they can't do a lot of things they'll need to do to keep this baby from coming.

Please pray
1) that they can get a new IV to take on the first try this morning and that the IV meds can relieve the current round of contractions.
2) that Hillary would be free from pain and discomfort on Mother's Day

  1. Oh Hillary! I'm so sorry!!! A "trick" that they taught over the year or so I was being poked ALL the time is that the more hydrated you are the easier it is for them to poke you. I'm sure that you are already super hydrated but if you know that they are coming try to down some water (a regular sized H20 bottle) about 15/20 minutes before the vampire arrives and hopefully it will go better. Hang in there! We are praying for you!!!
