Admitted :)

We are officially admitted to labor and delivery. I'm currently 4cm dilated and 70% effaced. I just finished my first 45 minutes of walking and am now on the monitors for 30 minutes. I'm not totally in "active labor" yet, but since my doctor isn't on call this weekend I had to be admitted before the office closed to be able to have her deliver me. I was given my first dose of antibiotics through IV since I was positive for group b strep. They need the meds to be in my system for 4 hours to take optimum effect before I deliver. The first dose was given at 4:15 so my doc is going to go home and be back at 8:15 (unless we need her before) to see how much progress has been made. All the nurses are great, and have had a good laugh about how I speed walk down the halls. I guess they aren't used to seeing that! Well, that's all for now. Keep praying for us! Can't wait to see Little Buddy and introduce him to Stella once she arrives. I already miss him!!
