warning: this post is LONG!
I would finally like to introduce the newest member to our Family!
Cade was born on October 24th, at 12:26 a.m. and weighed 7 lbs 14 oz and was 19 1/2 inches long!Isn't he oh so cute! I just love him! He is definantly a mini Chase, but at the same time as his own little look. We couldn't be more excited that he is finally here! Chase has been really good with him as well... He wants to hold him all the time, love on him, give him hugs and kisses, so far there hasnt been any jealousy (granted its only been a week!)
I decided to blog about his birth, since this is kinda like a journal for me. So sorry if you dont want to read about it, I guess just skip this step...LOL..
So after a week of having constant contractions (well what I thought was constant enough) I decided Sunday the 23rd I was going to go to the hospital regardless, I waited till about 12 pm to go, I just couldnt stand it anymore, My back was killing me, I was onry (my poor hubby) and I was just done! I was almost to my due date, infact it was just a few days away. I for sure thought I was dialted to something! So we get up to the Hospital, and while I was in the parking lot I looked at Jason, and was like we should just go home, they arent going to keep me, he said, no were up here, let's just see what they say..so we check in, the nurse takes me back in the room to observe my contractions and blah blah blah...
She checks me, she says I am dialted a 1+.. what!! Only a 1! She told me she would call the Dr adn see what he says, come to find out my dr was out of town so she had to call his partner, she told me before she left the room, she could tell I was in pain, so she would sweet talk him...So when she came back she said okay what we need to do is have you walk around the hospital, she showed me a position to stand in so the baby would drop out of my back, for at least an hour or two, she came back after a little while, and admitted me in my room, and was going to start me on the PIT but a much slower pace, since my Dr would be back in town ina few hours.
So then at around 5pm my wonderful Dr, (Dr Davis by the way, who is awesome!) came in and broke my water! now I havent had the epidural yet so it hurt so bad! It literally took him 20 min to break my water, he said I had a bag of Steel! oh ya! he checked me and I was still a 1+, argh!
they uped the PIT and sure enough the contractions really started coming! I was soon a 3 and wanted my epidural! I was teasing the anesteologist that last time with Chase it took him 4 times to get it, he was pretty cocky and said oh no that wont happen...it took him at least 3 times and then about a hour later, he had to come back in, because it stopped working completly.. so by the 4th time it worked wonders! he told me I jinxed him..
So soon enough I started dialated pretty quickly, and about midnight they started bringing in all of the stuff, and my Dr showed up and told me he was ready, so within 3 contractions Cade finally made his arrival...and I swear as soon as he was out I felt soo much better! I could actually breath! and I could tell he was a big baby..My dr guessed 7 1/2 pounds, he was pretty close, when they told me how much he weighed I was like no wonder why I was in so much pain! When your short like me its hard to carry a big baby! Anyways thats the story, sorry if I bored anyone... I will share some pics now,
