Or not.

Change in plans, folks: Eliza's debut was pushed back a day so her midnight release receipts count toward this weekend's box office total. :D

Seriously, though, Janie's cervix hadn't progressed enough for the esteemed Dr. Hodges to break the bag this morning, so we're in a holding pattern for the moment. The plan as of now is to take Janie off the pitocin at 6 and let her eat and shower (and walk.) Then she'll go back on the starvation diet at midnight and they'll restart the pitocin at 6 a.m. tomorrow.

Dr. Hodges thinks that maintaining the pitocin all day, plus restarting it tomorrow, should dilate Janie enough to get things moving. That's preferable to the alternative, which is a C-section that'll keep Janie down for a while and complicate things for a couple of weeks at least.

Everyone's gone home for the day now, so we're at Baby Defcon 5 for the rest of the evening.

Meanwhile, Janie and I are planning to try and get as much sleep as possible tonight, since she'll be off the monitors and able to get comfortable. I, on the other hand, will again try to get comfortable in a recliner that barely reclines.

Also, I have bubble-gum cigars to hand out now, plus a real cigar (a La Gloria Cubana Serie R #6) to enjoy when we get home.
