Waiting for Labor

So, Monday morning the doctor told Sarah that she was eight hours into labor. He also said that active labor could start at anytime. Naturally, this got us excited since this is our first child. We proceed to get everything ready (at work and at home) and then start the long process of waiting.

We are now roughly 38 hours into early labor and still no contractions. The best way to describe how this feels is to compare it to when you are at an airport and your plan gets delayed with no indication of when you will take-off. You just wait around and look at the monitors occasionally.

Now we just have to be as patient as possible and enjoy these last moments with nothing to do.
