11:29pm Welcome to the world, Sienna Belle!

11:26pm Alex says “Fuck”

10:55 10/10 centimetres! We are about to deliver. Alex is feeling very shivery. Which is good and normal.

9:45pm This could take a while. The nurse just made me up a bed.

9:20pm Alex’s left foot is colder so the anesthesiologist has given her some medicine which he assures her will work more quicklier.

9:05pm 4cm and getting some more sweet relief from Heinrich the man from Dutch’s protege.

8:12pm A nurse comes in and rests the machine. This is boring.

8:10pm A machine is beeping at us. It’s getting irritating.

7:05pm This man takes pain from a 6 to a 1! I have been replaced.
