Where to start well, I thought I was feeling labor pains Monday night so I hung around until 11:30 then we decided to go to St. George. I am always so afraid that when I get down there they will stop and we will have to come home. We got there and they got me hooked up the machines, and the contractions stayed. By the end of the hour of monitoring they checked me again and I was still a 4, but the babies head had descended and the doc on duty made the call to keep me because I needed antibiotics for Strep B. I was so happy, because that was one of my main concerns when I found out I had Strep B with this one was that I wouldn't have enough time to get the antibiotic in me before she came. So by 2:00 I had my IV in and they had the juice pumping in my system! Well no shortly after that my contractions almost completely stopped. I was concerned but they were not, they told me that once i got the first bag in my then they would call Dr. Lunt and he would break my water and then they would start the second bag. So at 6:00 Dr. Lunt came in broke my water and checked me, I was a 5. Dang I was starting to think this was going to be a LONG day! In the mean time a new nursing staff had came on duty and she told me as soon as I got the bag of saline in me then they would get my epidural. So at about 6:45 they call the anesthesiologist to come in. By the time everything was done it was around 7:15. AS I laid there patiently and anxiously waiting for the numbness to take over my nurse checked me and informed me I was a 9. Yep I have gone 4 centimeters in about 45 mins. So they had to put the catheter in me before I was numb, but at that point I was in more pain from the contractions so it didn't matter. The cute nurse that was assisting told them to get the anesthesiologist back here to get me a block. The other nurse came over checked me and then QUICKLY informed that there was no way he would get down here in time and I was going to have this baby. I had a little panic attack as I watched Dr. Lunt and 5 other nurses come flying into the room, pulling carts out getting Dr. Lunt dressed as fast as they could. All I could do was lay there and click the epidural clicker even though I knew it would do anything it seemed to calm me down a little. Kirby was very sweet, he could see the pain and fear I was going through and stood by me, I can't remember what he was saying but just o have him there was very comforting. They had me push through 5 contractions. The pain was muted a little from the epidural but boy did I feel so pain when her head and shoulders came out. I am grateful I was at least 1/2 numb I can't imagine nor do I want to having a natural birth. My body just progressed faster than the epidural could keep up, good to know, I have never had my water broken before, so now I know to have all hand on deck for next time! She was chubby faced when she came out and looked like a little Eskimo baby. She has been a eater from the first time I tried to nurse and has not stopped. WE are so lucky that everything went so smooth and that she is healthy and had no problems. The boys love her and we are absolutely in love and I think she already has her dad wrapped around her finger!

Pregnancy Update:
I am getting closer I have been a little annoyed lately with being pregnant. I have had a few too many comments from strangers at Walmart, and other places telling me I look like I am going to pop. It drives me crazy, I have learned to accept the comments and move on when they are from men, I figure they just really have no idea what they are talking about. The women that comment and then proceed to ask me if I am having twins or tell me I am as big as they were when they were prego with twins, those are the ones that might find themselves knocked out. I just wonder why after experiencing the felling of looking big, they would even open their mouths! Oh well, I have gotten over it and I just keep telling myself, I am not that big, even though my children think I am! Oh well!
