Trouble Sleeping in the Delivery Room
Lindsay was in labor for almost 23 hours. At about the 17.5 hour mark Lindsay got an epidural. The climate in the room changed dramatically. Her pain stopped and she was able to take a short nap. Gini (Lindsay's mom), Dawn (Lindsay's sister), and I all felt better ourselves, but we too were exhausted and decided to try to catch a few winks. The problem was there were three of us but only one place to sleep, so we had to get creative. Take a little looksee at some of our various attempts to sleep in the delivery room. There is one picture in this bunch where one of us actually fell asleep. Can you guess which one? You may post your guess in the comments section.

I'm calling the picture of Ginny, second from the top. I've fallen asleep in that position before many a time back in school.
The trash can shot is hilarious. The toilet one is pretty good too, but if you had been truly committed to selling it, you would have drooled on yourself a little.
Those are great...but why didn't you just sleep on the couch behind Dawn in the third picture?

Because, Kim, everyone knows drawers are more comfortable than couches. Actually, we did use the couch, but that left the two others to find a place to sleep, hence the drawer.
For sure the real sleeper is Dawn in the closet.
