Tia's husband got back from the field today and someone seems excited to meet Daddy! A lot of times, just being nervous or stressed can keep labor from starting. Between getting over a cold and not having to worry about her husband making it home in time to get her to the hospital, I was thinking Tia might have a big sigh of relief and was a bit optimistic about a Valentine's Day baby! Nothing consistent, but the contractions have changed to be more crampy and she seems to be experiencing a bit of a mood shift. The first signs of labor started around 4:30pm. I'll keep you up-to-date whether things continue or slack off. Please don't contact Tia. The point of the blog is to keep you in the loop while not creating any extra stress for her. Let's leave her to relax and deal with this adorable pouty face.
