The waiting is the hardest part...

My brother's girlfriend is currently in the hospital, willing their baby to make an arrival. She was admitted on Friday, and has been through four inductions, each of which has been unsuccessful. Last night, the doctor broke her water, and put her on a pitocin drip, and still, this morning, no baby. Every time the phone rings, and I see that it's my mom, I think that this will be the call that we've all been waiting for, but no.

It's hard to just wait, and wait, and wait, but I can't imagine how stressful this must be on both my brother and his girlfriend.
