    Thursday, February 7, 2002 (Due Day +5)

    09:30A: Kristyn began having contractions last night; this morning they were 16 minutes apart. Our plan is to leave for the hospital (some 13 minutes away) when they reach 5 minutes apart. Experience tells us this could take 24 hours or more but we're ready!

    10:30A: She decided to go for a walk. Back in 30 minutes, contractions have stopped. Sigh.

    12:15P: Still nothing happening -- so Gael baked three more cakes. She says that they're to freeze and enjoy later -- but who's going to keep the little mother-to-be away from 'em?

    7:00P: A lovely dinner was enjoyed by all. The highlight was the six-eyed stare directed at Kristyn...

    11:00p: Contractions have returned, more widely spaced than this morning. And so to bed...
