He is here! He's finally here!!!!!!

So after three days on the waiting list to be induced, three days of starving myself for the chance to get into the hospital, we finally made it in on Saturday afternoon!!!!!
Last pic of me Pregnant!!!
Because I had a previous c-section with M, the Dr. would only break my water. (If you don't want to read about this just skip down to the next picture...) So around 2:30 that afternoon she broke my water and left me there to progress on my own. By about 6:30 I was more than ready for my epidural!!!! Soon though the nurse realized that with each contraction the baby's heart rate dropped and then would be normal again. So they decided I had lost too much fluid and filled me back up again and all was well after that. Around 10:20pm the Dr. came in to check me and said I was ready to go!!!! After two contractions worth of pushes, at 10:35pm, out came our handsome baby boy face up!

So we want to welcome to the world and especially our family..... Baby Z!!!

Congratulations! He is a cutie and you look GREAT for just having a baby. I am so glad to finally see pictures.
I hated the waiting list to be induced!! It was so frustrating. Luckily Simon decided to come on his own a day later.

yay. baby is finally here. Her is a cutie. I didn't know they had a waiting list to be induced. I always just tried to schedule it for about 9 days early when I was about 32 weeks.
