Our baby Sam was born on April 6th at 10:11pm.
He was 2 weeks early and weighed 7lbs, 5 oz. We went to the hospital that night around 6pm that night for me to be induced. Around 8pm they broke my water. Contractions didn't really start coming until close to 9pm. But that's when one of our favorite shows, Lost is on. I jokingly told Chris that I can't have the baby until Lost is over. Contractions started coming everything 3-4 minutes apart during that hour. After a contraction ended I'd ask Chris what I missed. A couple of minutes before the show was over, the nurse came in to check me and she said I was almost dilated to a 10, so I could start pushing. What? I didn't expect it to happen so fast. I gave a few practice pushes with the nurse there, and then when the doctor was there and ready, I pushed him out. It was so fast and I was so happy to have a smaller baby than my other two boys. We love having a little baby to hold. He is so sweet and brings us so much peace to our crazy lives. Other than being exhausted from lack of sleep, we are happy and adjusting well.
