Susan continues to progress through her labor over the last several hours. She's been trying to find ways to deal with the pain, so we have tried walking and sitting, and other various strategies.
Fortunately, she found quite a bit of relief by sitting in the whirlpool, so she's been "soaking" for the last 2 hours or so. That's allowed Jeremy to get a little rest, although not a lot.
Currently, Susan is receiving 4 different treatments through her IV: Insulin (to control her blood sugar), an Anti-biotic (to protect against infection), Pittossen (to help produce conctractions) and fluids (to keep her hydrated).
Depending on the pain, Susan will likely get an epidural at some point in the next few hours. When that happens, she'll be confined to bed until after the baby is born.
We'll update you when anything changes.
