This was Jon's description of my appearance when I was wheeled back into the labor room from the surgery room yesterday. The procedure to remove the stitches didn't go as well as the procedure to place them back in November. I won't go into detail, but I will say that I never want to have another epidural or spinal block so long as I shall live, amen.
But the stitches are gone, "the door is open" as Jon says, and the baby is doing well (and still in utero). No labor yet. The nurse had me walk laps around the ward yesterday afternoon to see if it would bring on labor, but all was quiet on that front. Jon devised his own form of labor inducement: leaning over my belly, he called out "Don't make me come in there and get you, young lady!" But apparently she's just not ready yet.
But I am now free to do wacky, dangerous things like take a walk, which I plan to do today.
