Our friendly neighborhood anesthesiologist just paid us a visit and gave Rachel a dose of happiness. After bearing some mighty strong contractions this morning, she's now resting comfortably with the epidural in.
And, a side note, can I just say how great Rachel did during the contractions? She furrowed her brow sweetly and followed along with the breathing, but never cried. Granted, she did say she wanted to rip her eyeballs out. But between contractions she was smiling and laughing.
Now that my first duties as a coach are temporarily done, it's time to grab some lunch and rest up for the final stretch. After all, she's taking a nap. Why can't I?
