Well, after a hard wait and uncertainty Calib has joined my brood.

Maggie's water broke at about 16:15 as we were about to leave to go to a BBQ at my parents home with my fathers side of the family. We dropped off Shelbi May and just went directly to the hospital.

Upon our arrival we were checked into a room and the tests began. Tests to check the fluid first came up with a negative for her 'water' and they were about to send us home. The Doctor on call came in to check Maggie once more and indicated that it was that her water had broken but she wasn't dilating.

This same thing happened with the birth of Shelbi May and so Calib was taken C-Section.

Now Ol' Xan is taking a quick shower, grabbing a bite to eat (haven't eaten since this morning) and will be heading back to the hospital.

Recovery time for Maggie = 3 days.
