7lbs 1oz and 19 1/2 inches long!

Pictures to come...

The delivery was a scary one...I went to get induced on Wednesday night after seeing the doctor that day...he thought that since they did not know if I had gestational diabetes for sure and I have been dilated for a bit it was a good idea...

So my hubby and I had a nice dinner at Cheesecake factory..lthen headed to the birthing center...

They then started me on pitocin and that night I started contracting regularly and it was getting stronger...

That morning at around 9:30 my OBGYN came in and broke my water...things then sped up quickly...contractions were coming one after another and before we knew it I went from 4 to 10 cm...but bc of one huge contraction, my little one's heart rate slowed..lactually they could not find his heart rate but then it could be because they had me on my knees at the point...I was in so much pain even with IV Meds I thought I was going to die...they put a oxygen mask on me...

At this point there were 2 doctors and several nurses in the room and they decided to send me to OR and were ready to do a csection...

They sent my hubby to put on scrubs...but before a csection my OBGYN decided to have me try to have this baby naturally so he told me to push and push hard really fast...before I knew it Caleb was coming out and just in time for my husband to see him coming out...he then got a chance to cut the cord and got to hold our baby boy!

I am so thankful that my OBGYN gave it one last try to have him naturally...

Afterwards, recovery has not been easy...almost had a blood transfusion done because he came so fast and I just kept clotting, but thankfully the Meds they gave me worked...

Thank you to all who followed our journey through pregnancy...it has been hard, but now that we have our little man it has been so worth it.

I will be updating this blog from time to time so stay tuned but I wanted to share my journey because I know there are others who are going through what I went through and those who will be going through it and I want others to be able to get information about cerclage which I could not really find.

So until next time...
