Arrgh!

Things were moving quite along, and by 4am I was sustaining 60-90 second strong contractions about 2-3 minutes apart for several hours. We left for the hospital at 4:30am, only to have my labor completely stall at 5am. Thankfully Dan and I never actually went up to the maternity ward. We walked around outside the hospital for an hour, napped a little bit in the car to see if that would help, and then headed home at 6:20am. Complete bummer!

I am exhausted after laboring most of the night and not getting any sleep. My contractions now are fairly strong but a good 10 minutes apart. The positive side of that is that I have been able to get a little bit of sleep.

Dan and I will try going for a walk in a little while. Perhaps that will help. All prayers to get this labor going again are welcome! :)

Here's poor me thinking we were on our way to having a baby, 4:30am:
