On Wednesday March 23, 2011 @ 5:04 pm Crew was born weighing in at 6lbs. 3oz. 19.5 in long. Last Tuesday evening i started having mild contractions and they were getting a little worse. We decided to go to the hospital at midnight to see where i was at. I was only dilated to a 1 and 90% effaced, so they called my doctor and he told them to give me morphine and just go home. So we went home and slept for 5 1/2 hrs then the morphine wore off. I woke up and my contractions were stronger so we went back to the hospital Wednesday morning at 8 and they said i was dilated to a 4 and 100% effaced. So they kept me. Then by the time the anesthesiologist got into the room i was dilated to an 8. Once the epidural kicked in i felt sooo much better. :) By 12:00 that afternoon i was dilated to a 10 and 100% effaced, so the nurses had me do the rest and descend method for a couple hrs. Then after that i pushed for 2 1/2 hrs and Crew arrived. :) We love him so much and can't get enough of him. He is a blessing in our lives. We love being parents. Shay is a great dad he has helped sooo much with Crew while my mom has helped me recover. I LOVE my baby BOY and so excited he is healthy and here safely.
