The Countdown Begins

Hello everybody, this is Jennifer filling in for Kristen running the play by play on Kingsley's arrival into this world.

Kristen and Lindsey had a doctors appointment at 5 this afternoon for the final check up on the baby. Everything is lookin good, her blood pressure was a tiny bit high but who can blame her (Having a baby isn't without it's stress!). The doctor said she was only dilated at finger tip width which I suppose isn't very much.

We all then met up for Kristen's "last meal" at Luna De Nocha for some tasty Mexican food. "Everyone"consisted of Kristen, Lindsey, Greg, Paul and me. For future reference Kingsley, your mama ate a cup of avocado soup and a half order of bean and cheese nachos. Here's a pic of mommy and daddy.

So Kristen got into her delivery room just after 7 and basically since then has just been trying to relax, which seems harder said than done for her since the baby is pressing on her ribs quite a bit. I just heard a nurse say that they'll be coming back in to do some blood work in a bit and I guess after that they will administer the Cervidil.
