Ok, first of all I am SO SORRY that I wasn't able to update you last night. But, thank you Sam for doing so!
Yesterday I got a text from Becky saying that she started contracting about 2am, but they weren't regular (some 5 mins others 10). Checked in with her later and she said they had gotten regular between 6 and 7 minutes apart, and very painful (poor dear!). She had taken a couple of warm showers and that helped ease the pain. Her comment was she couldn't believe Heather did this natural  . Then you all know that she went to the hospital and was 4.5cm dilated. She had also gotten her epi and was feeling much better.
Overnight they had to re-do her epi and started the pitocin at 5am (Eastern time). At 8am-ish (Eastern time) she said she was getting ready for a c/s  and that she's pouting. She's not dilating enough and developed a fever this morning. They tried pitocin but Mark didn't like that at all. So at that time she was waiting for the doc and then heading to the OR.
That's all I know for now. I'll update more when we know more. I've already let her know that a c/s isn't all that bad especially knowing that she'll be holding Mark before she knows it. My DH said to warn Tony that he'll be running around like a head with his chicken cut off  because Becky will be out of too much for a little while to handle any questions about Mark etc.

Just got a text from Becky. She's a bit groggy and doesn't have all of the details yet (nor does DH ). She says Mark has a great set of lungs and is 6 pounds 10 oz. He has a temp so he is in NICU for testing. She'll update more when she can.
She wishes Mark was in her room, but he has dark hair and is beautiful. She'll send pics as soon as she can and I'll post them when I get them.

Yay! I had to log in to see the pics, because Becky tried to send them by text and my stupid phone kept telling me it wouldn't download them! He's absolutely a little doll!!
Congrats Becky and Tony!!
