Babywatch Update
Contractions getting too painful to sleep, but not terrible yet. We're going to start timing them here shortly to determine when to call Eliecia and Sue, our amazing midwife. Jeff's filling the tub now....
Ohhhhh, come ON, baby!!!!! Lyssie, remember to keep your shoulders down. I know that sounds weird, but if you tense up, it makes everything more intense. Keeping your shoulders relaxed usually helps you relax the rest of your body. Breeeeeathe. You can do it! The water helps a lot too (Jack was born in the water, btw). You have my number - CALL ME if you need to.
