Long day's journey into...labor?

It's been a long un-eventful day. Jacob has only produced a few contractions here and there but nothing consistent. Knowing the looooong process we went thorough with Leah, who gave painful contractions but no real dilation, we made the decision to administer pictosin at 4:15 to help the dilation and contraction process. Because Michelle has a condition called Group-B Strep (a not entirely uncommon condition) if we went home and waited until more contractions started Jacob could be affected adversely. So really the only choice was to stick it out and go through the labor today. It's 4:30 and Michelle is already feeling stronger contractions. More later...
