The Wait Is Over.....!

I finally made it!! Born Wednesday February 3, 2010 at 11:23 am, weighing in at 7lbs 4ozs !! What a journey it was getting here!! My mommy checked into the hospital on February 2nd at 7:30pm and it all began there! At 8:00 they gave my mommy a pill to help with the progression of labor!! It must have worked because at 12:30am her water broke and she did not need a 2nd pill!! Dr. Grover came in and finished off what was left of the water! Mommy certainly started to feel the contractions after that all happened!! Finally they were able to give her some pain meds through her IV line and that made mommy very sleepy, but only for a short period of time! She was able to get a 2nd dose of the happy juice!! The nurses finally told mommy that she could have an epidural and she was thrilled! Mommy did not like when she got the epidural, they told her to hold really still but right in the middle I decided I wanted to have a little contraction!! Sorry mommy!! You were so brave! Shortly after the medicine started to work my nurse Kelly noticed that my heart rate was beginning to do funny things.... This was certainly alarming for her! She handled it so well and was great with mommy reassuring her things were going to be fine! Before we knew it mommy was getting pumped with lots of meds, oxygen was given and the labor process was being stopped! The doctor and nurse thought that the cord was wrapped around my neck and an emergency c-section was the game plan!!! Mommy was such a trooper and daddy was such a big support for her!! Shortly thereafter I arrived perfectly healthy!! However the cord was around my neck and I was head down but face up... Thank heavens they decided to take me early!!! Mommy and daddy cannot get enough of me and love to cuddle, play, smile, laugh and take great care of me!! I know I am going to love being with them!!
