Well, it's been forever since I posted!!! So, if you don't want to read my delivery story you can skip ahead...I was due with Benett the 20th of November, but with Chad's work schedule we needed to try and time it. I had to deliver at Scottsdale and I live in San Tan Valley, so it's an hour drive and that didn't sound too great to me while in labor so we decided on Thursday before, the 14th I'd have my membranes stripped. I did that with my other 2 and went into labor like 30 hours later. Chad had Friday on off, so it was good timing. Well when the doctor checked me she said I was a 4 already and thinning, she went ahead and stripped them at like12:00 and on the way home I had an uncomfortable contraction, but didn't think much of it. Well by 1:30 I was having them every 10 minutes and by 2:30 every 5 minutes and very uncomfortable, so I called my mom from work at 3 and asked her to head to my in-laws to pick me up to get me to the hospital. We got there at about 4:30, Chad was there at work so he just met me by the entrance and we went up and got settled I was a 6 when I first got there, they did all my blood work and IV's....took FOREVER, then got me to the room and had the IV start. The anesthesiologist came in and gave me the epidural, then my doctor came right in and broke my water and I had our baby BOY at 6:19. It was so fast! When he came out, chad goes..."It's a....BOY!", Me: Really???, The nurse: Yeah! See!!!! (holding him right up to my face) :D Funny! It was pretty fun!
I hate all my pictures after delivery...all puffy so don't judge! It's for posterity :D
