I was approaching my due date and was starting to nest. I spent Friday night CLEANING. I finally settled down on the couch at 11:30 only to be awakened at 1:30 with contractions. After doubting that it was the "real thing" for a few hours, we finally called Mom to come to our house at 5:00 am Saturday morning. We arrived at the hospital and checked in around 6:00 am. After I was admitted, they monitored the baby and me. We both were doing great, but the contractions were coming on much faster and MUCH stronger. We decided to have the jacuzzi tub filled and we were off for a walk around the maternity ward...I made one lap and decided I better head back to my room. Seth told them I wouldn't be needing the bath. A few minutes later, the doctor came in to check me and proceeded to tell me to push on the next contraction. It all just came on so fast! I pushed for three contractions. Liam started crowning on the second! On the fourth, the doctor asked me not to push, as they had to get prepared for delivery. Little Liam was delivered on the fifth contraction at 7:33 am, weighing 7 pounds 9 ounces, measuring 19 inches long. What a blissful and blessed morning!
A few pictures...more coming...eventually! :)
