Labor has started....

Hello everyone - as you can tell from the title, Cicely is not posting this blog entry - in fact, I'm under orders to do so vice hold her hand and comfort her through the contractions...thank God Mom's here. Anyway, she woke up at 1:00 am this morning (Japan time) and has had contractions since....it was slow progress, so at around 4 pm, we asked the Dr to break her water. The contractions are a bit more painful now - she thinks she doesn't want the epidural (sp?) but we'll see.
