Sleep's not gonna happen, I'm afraid

I've tried for about 2 hours to sleep, but the contractions are definitely getting to the point where I'd say they hurt. They're also starting to last longer, around 45 seconds or so, and they're coming a little more frequently. So this fading in and out of sleep is probably not helping me much. I may resign myself to the thought of being up for the long haul, and I'll most likely be beckoning my stellar coach here very soon.
