I finally got pics from my sister Jolette today from when we had Milo, so i figured a birth story post was in order.
We had been to the hospital two or three times in a week with contractions, but my body doesn't like to dilate so we were sent home again, and again.... and again. We had my family's halloween Party on the 26th of october. i went at 11 in the morning to help set up, as much as i could, so we would be ready before everyone showed up. I was contracting all morning! the party started at 6 pm and the contractions kept getting stronger. About 8:30 i told my dad i thought i needed to get to the hospital.
So my mom, Jojo and i get in jojo's car and get going. the whole way down contractions were one to two minutes apart! they got me hooked up to the moniters to keep an eye on milo and to see where we were at. I was in active labor, but contractions had slowed down and i once again was NOT dilating!
They gave me morphine for pain so i get some sleep, and sent me on my way. Sunday came around and i went about my day, relaxing when i needed to. My friends did a baby shower for me, and it was fun! lots of laughing, and an adorable cake!
It was seriously a much needed day with my friends! I went home and took a nap, and then dad brought paizlee home. We went to bed that night and all was well, until i woke feeling sick at 3 in the morning. after an hour in the bathroom, we called dad to tell him we were bringing paizlee back, and off to the hospital we were!
They monitored me again for an hour, and i was dilating, so we were admitted by 5:30 in the morning on october 28th. needless to say it was a very long night!!
he arrived healthy at 12:54 pm on october 28 2013! the clock in the room said 12:53 but the docs clock said otherwise.
My sister jolette cut the cord
he was and still is a big boy!!
