Sounds like a really dumb thread from an old RN but things have changed so much and never worked in L&D. Daughter due and water broke in the hospital and called cell and Father of baby answered said can't talk thanks for calling. Cell was breaking up. Now there was an e-mail timed 6am that water had broken. And since up til 3 nightly read at ll:30. My water broke too and all kids born with three contractions and this phone eall was at noon so what happens now? Yesterday she e-mailed she was 3-4cm dilated and station -1 whatever that means. The hospital is more than one location. So what do I do? Seriously no idea? Love Phillipa and I always knew everything when working in my fields so now the only one no experience in is happening figures. Thanks

Okay, so yesterday at 6 am, water broke?
Not sure of time-line Phillipa.
I think the main thing to know is that she's in the hospital, under good care.
They'll call you when there's news.
Try not to worry. If it were me, I'd be taking it that they were just letting me know that I was quite close to being a Gramma for a new baby!
love, Kath
PS - 'quite close' is relatively speaking....I'm sure it doesn't feel close to the woman in labour or whoever's with her! OR the people who care about her!

Call from Father got an epidural 7cm dilated sleeping. He and I have never met as not married. She's an independant woman But engaged so think will marry. He was very polite kind of cold . But he asked us to walk her dog. Asked him to call when baby born, and asked what hospital. Sounded like about five or six as now pitocin also. Love Phillipa. Manic probably why the phone was wierd first time.
