Welcome baby Drew!!

Drew decided to surprise us all today by making his entrance into the world! It started around 1:00 AM Friday morning when my water broke. I managed to take a quick shower before heading to the hospital.
We made it to the hospital around 2:30 AM and checked in. Here I am in Triage.

After Triage, we were transferred up to our labor and delivery room and they started me on Pitocin to speed up the contractions.

And then the waiting begins...at least we had a nice TV to watch.
So I was only 3 1/2 cm dilated at 5:00 AM so they ramped up the Pitocin dosage. By 6:00 AM I was ready for the epidural!!! Once the epidural was given we continued to wait for me to dilate. It took another 7 hours with a couple more increases in Pitocin and me begging for more Epidural shots (Louie the Anesthesiologist became my best friend) before I was ready to start pushing. So I started pushing around 1:30 PM and baby Drew was finally born at 2:32 PM.
Here is Drew drinking his first bottle.
Here we are, one happy family!
