the daylight savings surprise!

At 2:30am on saturday night (a time that technically didn't exist) I was woken up by an amazing tsunami of amniotic fluid gushing from my body. There was lots of meconium in it so I've been at the hospital ever since. Contractions started on their own as we were driving to the hospital. Around noon I went for an epidural and things are moving slow but I am feeling pretty good. 5cm and 100% effaced. I have thrown up a few times, which I hadn't realized often comes with labor. Now, just waiting. The amazing thing is that it is happening and it doesn't feel anywhere near as sureal as I was expecting...
