6-13-09 12:00am The future grandparents

One of my jobs in assisting the delivery is talking to the loved ones and answering any questions they have. Mrs. S's parents arrived a few hours ago from Pennsylvania. We had a lovely chat about everything from the weather to this strange sport you Americans play called hockey. Apparently the local team called "The Penns" were battling a group called "The Redwings". This savage yet graceful competition ended with a victory for the Penns. Mrs. S said " The burg is now the city of champs, n'at" I think Steely-Eye Gnomanski is starting to rub off on her.

Anyway, another update. Mrs. S is at 10 cm and all looks good. Probably won't go past 2am

10pm ... nothing new to report

8cm dilated and the contractions are 2-3 minutes apart.

6-12-09 7pm All is well

Under my expert guidance I helped with the epidural thus relieving Mrs. S's pain. I do think that your American medicine is amazing. Back in Gnomistan we just give the mother a shot of Gnomistani wiskeyand a leather strap to bite down on.

6-12-09 Well......It's Time!

6-12-09 Well......It's Time!
The day is upon us, Mrs. S is in labor. The three of us are at the hospital and everything is progressing normally.


I was able to find a nice pair of scrubs that fit.

Mrs. S is doing wonderfully...under my expert supervision.
