Epidural time

Epidural is in, just as the contractions are ramping up. There's still a little bit of pain (the nurse calls it a "hotspot") where the epidural doesn't seem to be taking effect. They're giving her a second dose to hopefully pick that up as well.

Robin's not one of those pregnant ladies they show on movies, who need their back or their feet rubbed all the time. Quite the opposite, actually. She'd rather be stoically stood near, a task for which I am very well suited.

Dr. B. will probably be back in a few more minutes to check on progress. Contractions very regular at 2.5 minutes.

Stoic standing is better than passed out on the floor..... ha ha ha
