On our way out the door to the hospital on Wednesday
Seconds after Andrew was born
In honor of the Olympics- our little Buddah
Taken by our nurse
Tired dad crashes after adrenaline wears off The details: I had been having contractions since earl morning on Wednesday and they started to hurt around 2:30ish. I didn't go through the whole contractions thing with Nate-my water broke, we went in, the put in my iv- I was never uncomfortable. I didn't know when I should go in this time since I never experienced this. After much prodding from my mom and MIL I went in to the hospital around 4pm. I was only dilated to a 4 so they wanted to monitor me for an hour before admitting me. Then at 5pm I had only dilated a 1/2 cm so they put me on another hour of observation. My body is retarded and wouldn't dilate but they decided to admit me anyway. The doctor on call came in and broke my water at 7pm. At 8pm I received my epidural and it was cake from there:) This whole time we had been watching the Olympics. At 9pm the doctor came in to check me and I was at a 9 so we got ready for the delivery. When I started to push Chris turned off the Olympics. The nurses and doctor told him multiple times he could turn it back on- I think they wanted to watch:) After 4 sets of 3 pushes Andrew was out. I know, I have easy deliveries. He is the most peaceful, quiet little baby.... right now. No post labor preeclampsia, no bad tearing, no mag sulfate. It has been so great enjoying spending time with Chris getting to know Andrew together. We are a blessed family.
