a may 10 birthday? or maybe the 11th

Hooray! Contractions are finally starting, although still in the early-labor stage. With both the boys I had 12 hours of this stuff before the 10-hour hard labor started. I'm hoping by the end of the day, or maybe early tomorrow morning there will be a baby! Thanks everyone for all the prayers and encouragement.. here are a few answers to prayer so far: -it started early morning, just like I wanted. I had a refreshing 5 1/2 hours of good sleep and feel ready to face the pain and stay up during the night if I have to. -it started without a drug induction (whew!) -she is positioned right (I'm pretty sure) to avoid back labor My mom is on her way in, and Andy is at work for the morning...will keep you posted with news to come!

So excited! And will keep praying for you during the next hours...and hoping it won't be so long. I think Sue would like to share her day with Jada. :-)
