Kade was born at 3:55pm on Sat, the 7th...6lbs 8oz! This birth was WAY easier than with Connor! I went in at 5:30 am for the antibiotics and they broke my water at around 10 am. I walked the halls for a few hours to get my contractions to start, but they just weren't taking off! So, at around noon, I told Sean that I was super hungry and wanted to eat dinner that night....so that meant that we needed to get the show on the road! I knew that if we waited to let the contractions start naturally, that I may not eat until tomorrow. So, I told the nurse to start the pitocin and get the epidural going ASAP. I was really craving a burger. So, they began the epidural and pitocin around noon and just a few hours later I was dilated to 10cm! It went really fast! The only glitch was that they had to put a tube up into the uterus to add fluid because the cord was wrapped around his neck. So...the nurse had me push twice and we saw that the head was right there. We called for the doc to come in and and we got everything ready...including Sean. My doc actually let Sean deliver him!!!!! Sean got to do EVERYTHING! I pushed two more times and he literally slid right out! Unfortunately they made me wait another hour to eat, but hey...I still got to eat by dinner time! He looks just like Connor did, but smaller and with hair. Take a look at the pictures below and you'll see Sean delivering him!
