9:53- Just chillin at the hospital! =) I'm having some nice contractions (they are just a little bit painful) and playing on my computer. It's so fun I have internet access here! I was 3 cm and 70% effaced when I got here.
12:05- My Doctor broke my water (finally) and I'm just contracting along. I'm 4 cm and 80%...come on, Baby Chase- let's DO this! =)
2:15- I got my epidural and it worked perfect. Not totally numb but SO comfortable. Contractions? What contractions? =)
3:47- My nurse, my sister Anne and I were just hanging out and talking and laughing while my little nephew Luke napped away! My Dr came in to check on me and was like "OH! You're 100% and 10 cm. Let's do a practice push. Oooookay. No more practicing. Let's have this baby." I pushed and he came out in less than 6 minutes! Whew! Baby Chase weighed 7 lbs 15 oz and 21 inches long. He has a little bit of hair and is SO cute! He's quiet so far and snuggles very well!
9:12- What a great day!! Labor was about as perfect as labor can be. All of my family was able to come and hold Chase. Jackson gave Chase a kiss and a hug and really enjoyed his "I'm a big brother" present we got him. He spent the day with Gigi and Gpa and went to the zoo with Auntie Liz and Becky. Alan and I just split a personal pizza and Chase is sleeping quietly next to me. We are relaxing and watching Jon & Kate- oh the drama!!
