Yesterday afternoon Brenda had some lower back pains that lasted about a half hour or so. Then last night she woke up a 3am and had what she\u2019s thinking might have been contractions. So we don\u2019t know for sure, but if they were contractions they\u2019re about 12 hours apart right now.<\/p>\n

More updates later today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
