I woke up about 2:30 in the morning feeling contractions, got spencer up about 3:30 to time me. There were about 3 within 10 minutes, but they weren't regular. We called Janet to come over about 4 am. We hurried to the hospital this time knowing how fast Caroline came. When we got there (about 4:20am) the nurses took my name and info, as soon as they saw I had my last baby within 15 min after arriving they were quick to get the delivery room ready for me. I was at 7cm, knowing I had a little while before go time I started pacing the room. After about 30 min of hard contractions it was time. The doctor had been called out to deliver another baby, and finished up just in time for me to start pushing. I had to keep reminding myself I had done this before and I could do it again! With a few hard pushes the little guy was out about 5am, cord around his neck and blue as can be. They let me hold him a few seconds before quickly taking him to clean out his lungs and measure, weigh and check him. His head was still a little blue but he was doing well. The whites of his eyes were pretty bruised, hence the dark eyes. The nurses kept commenting on how big his feet were, he gets that from his dad:) He is absolutely adorable! There is a new excitement in having a little boy. He is home now and we are all completely enjoying him.
He is my sweet little angel!
