5 cm and counting

It's 11:45 and we're all in shock right now. When the catheter was put in at 9:30, we didn't expect the cervix to dilate right away. We thought it would take till Tuesday morning for the cervix to start dilating. But when Ivy sneezed, the catheter poped out. In about 2 hours, she dilated 5 cm.

So instead of stopping the meds at midnight, the doctor punctured the amniotic sac and we are proceeding forward. At this rate, Ivy should be at 10 cm around 4-5 am. I guess no sleep starts today!

Wish us luck.
