labor

Can you see that chicken scratching? That's my first attempt at recording my labor pains. Clearly, I did not get far. After I woke Jon up at 3 am, he tried to keep track - but quickly realized it would be much easier if he downloaded Labor Mate for his I Phone.

Ah, technology.

Here's the read-out, you know, in case you were wondering, or for future reference.

Although, now that I look at that, I seem to remember A LOT more contractions than that. Perhaps we forgot to push the little button sometimes?

And it sure doesn't record how GOD-AWFULLY, MIND-NUMBINGLY PAINFUL it was.
