My due date was supposed to be June 24, so he made his way into the world a little early, unlike his older sister who we had to force out a week late. I started having hard contractions around 1 or 2 am and we were admitted and in our hospital room just before 5am. Things happened fast, my doctor was called, I received an epidural (not as pleasant of an experience this time around...but still grateful for it), doctor broke my water and within a few minutes I was ready to push. The doctor was turning the baby in between contractions so he wouldn't come head up, I pushed 7 or 8 times and baby was here! Born at 6:41am, weighed 7 lbs 15 oz, 19.5 inches long.
I got to hold him immediately, which I loved. He was screaming and they placed him on my chest and the second I touched him he stopped crying. Seth cut the cord and I just got to hold my baby for about a 1/2 hour while being stiched up. It was my favorite part, it was like I was literally holding a little piece of heaven. So so awesome! It made the difficult pregnancy melt away, we are so blessed to have another healthy child!
