By 6am we had been sent home. Sangeeta’s contractions slacked off to one every 7-8 minutes so they told us to go back home and wait until she had contractions 5 minutes apart for 2 hours in a row and can’t walk or talk during the contractions!

As of 3:30pm they’re still coming every 6-7 minutes. At one point she had them at 4 minute intervals, but when I pointed this out to her she turned to me and said “It doesn’t matter because I can still talk!”

It’s tough because she can’t sleep. The contractions wake her up just when she dozes off. And there’s not a whole lot I can do to help, aside from a little massage, a little timekeeping, and fetching the occasional object of desire.
