Home Sweet Home

On September 28, we were discharged from the hospital. It was a cold, rainy day. We were excited to bring our sweet bundle of joy home. We can't believe she is ours!

So on Monday September 26, 2011 around 6:30pm my water broke at home! I was 37 weeks to the day. I had worked all weekend and was exhausted Monday, so I took 2 naps and watched tv all day, which isn't unusual after working 3 days in a row 12 hour shifts. I told Kaleb my water broke and he freaked out. I called the hospital and they told me to come on. So we finished packing our bags. As we were driving out of our driveway, I said this is the last time it will just be us!

We made it to Forrest General around 830pm. I changed into the flattering hospital grown. The doctor said I was 3cm and my water was definitely broke.  I got hooked up to all the monitors and called my family! The nurse started an 18g in my left forearm and started the liter of fluid that I needed before I could get an epidural.

My epidural only numbed the right side of my body, so I felt everything on the left. The pain was bad but I knew I had to breath so Kinleigh would get all the oxygen she needed!

300am I needed to push and I was 10cm.  At 336am I had my sweet baby girl!! She was absolutely beautiful!
