Please, please pray for my sister in law.

She's been in pretty hard labor with her 1st for 37 hours now. She's only 2 cm. The contractions are 5 min apart and she can't talk through them -- and they've been this way for over 24 hours. I think that she is really really afraid of the actual birthing so is subconsciously stalling herself.
Please pray for her. She really needs it.
Thank you!

Wow--I'm surprised they're "letting" her labor this long and this slow. Praying for her right now.

Thank you for your prayers!
Still no baby. Only one more cm btwn last evening and this one. She labored at home till this morning, but now she's at the hospital.   
She and her husband are exhausted having had no sleep since Friday night. They put her on pitocin and gave her an epidural. Hopefully things will happen soon!

Thank you everyone!
She had a little girl at 1am after 50 hrs of labor. With the epidural she could rest and the baby was born within 8 hrs. I'm not sure how she is doing, but I'm going to visit her today. I know she wanted so much to have a natural birth -- but honestly thank goodness for epidurals.
Thank you again for praying for her -- she's one of my best friends and I was so worried for her yesterday!

What an epic experience for her first baby.

We will keep her and her beautiful little girl in our prayers and Hubby of course.

She is blessed to have someone who cares so much for her.

God Bless

Thank God! I've been checking often for updates! I pray she has a quick recovery--she must be exhausted.
