On August 10, 2012 at 2:47am, they placed our 8lb, 2oz Son in our arms. 13 days late, he's perfect in every way!

His First Picture

The Time is Now

We're scheduled for a cesarean section within the next hour. Baby's heartrate was dipping too much from the contractions.

Quick Update

She's still around 6.5cm dilated. Nurses removed the oxytocin because the baby's heartrate was dropping really low with every contraction. At 9:15pm, the doctor broke her water manually to progress labor.

Pain Free!

Nicole is now 6.5cm dilated. She had her epidural anesthesia at around 5pm, PAIN FREE! Doctor says to expect to go into delivery anywhere between 8-12 hours. Wish us luck!

"The Magic Button"

 

Progress

Nicole is now 3cm dilated, which means it's time to increase the contrations with oxytocin to augment and induce labor.

Something Nicole said last night after receiving pain medication:

"I would like a gatorade waterfall."

View from our room

Here's what we get to look at. The other rooms have no windows. I guess we got lucky. :)

Nicole Update: Lots of contractions and pain. They issued some medication to take the edge off. Last time they checked, she's about 1cm dilated.
