I need encouragement

Been at the hospital for 8 hours. My Dr got stuck in emergency surgery so it wasn't until 6hrs in they broke my water. But I'm still only a 3. Contractions every 2-3 min. I HAD to get the epidural. That totally sucked by the way. I'm just getting discouraged that nothing is happening :(

Thanks. I know it's silly, it's just hard being all emotional.

The joys of birth no one said it will be quick and easy but Hey look at the bright side since your water is broke there's no going back :) And soon your beautiful baby will have entered this world and all these feelings you are having will be gone and you will be overcome with love and joy!
