Cross your fingers and send up quick labor vibes

Katie's been having contractions for the past 2 hrs that are 5 mins apart but only last 45 seconds. I'm hoping this is the start for her... Josh of course wants to head for the hospital NOW. lol
I've got her walking and drinking lots of water, and don't dare tell her that as uncomfortable as she is, she could still stop and wait several days since she's stil able to walk and talk normally through her contractions.

Josh finally insisted they head for the hospital. * wont be surprised if they get sent back home, but he's so stressed and is supposed to leave in the morning for work again for the week nearly 2 hrs away, so I think he's hoping to WILL this baby to be born tonight. lol

I hope he's right... and her contractions hadn't slowed down any, but having had 3 of my own, I'm not convinced she's quite ready for the hospital yet.

The baby has dropped and for someone who's only gained 13 lbs, she's got quite a package there! I took this pic earlier today when I had her out walking with me.

Katie and Josh opted to come back home for a few hours, so are on their way. She's 100% effaced, dilated to 3 and still having contractions, but not terribly hard ones yet. The hospital gave her the option of staying or leaving. They told her it will be a long wait if she stays; but that she will most likely be back there in the morning.
