On October 25, Chris and I welcomed our new baby. We had a weekly doctor appointment that morning. Well, the doctor told us that I was already 6 cm dilated and told us to go upstairs to the Birth Place to have a baby! We were able to go home first, since we live so close, grabbed our bags, brought Chase and Ari to my mom's, and went to the hospital.
We got all checked in and the doctor came in to break my water. That was around 10 am. The nurses then told me to walk around to speed things up a bit, so Chris and I started walking the halls. At around 11, the contractions started getting really bad, so we headed back to our room to get an epidural. Well, I guess I was too far along already, so they decided to do a spinal block instead. It was wonderful! I didn't feel a thing! I started pushing around 12:30 and at 12:48, Chris announced that we had a GIRL!!!
Reagan Ann weighed in at 6 pounds, 15 ounces and was 19.75 inches long!
We have been been home now for over a week and everyone is adjusting well. Reagan is a good eater and sleeper and is a very happy baby.
