We're home!
I could not have asked for a better labor and delivery
Everything went so smoothly
We were called into the Hospital at 11:15. I thought it was going to be a long day.
They broke my water around 12:30. Contractions were too strong for me to handle by 3:30, so they called the anesthesiologist and I got my epidural. I was so excited when I could still feel my legs, and could move my toes! When I had Cutler, I could not move at all.
At 6:00 I had progressed to a 6. Jon decided he was going to take Cutler for a walk around the hospital.
He asked before he left... "your not going to have a baby within the next hour are you?"
I was planning on the baby being there around 9:00
at 6:15 my epidural was starting to wear off, and the pressure was increasing.
I called my nurse, she checked me, I was completely dilated and ready to push.
We called Jon and told him to hurry back.
The doctor came in, I pushed twice, and then little Kapri was born.
My dad and emily had just gotten into town, and made it Just in time!
We were able to come home Sunday evening.
Kapri has jaundice so she has to be on a bilirubin light 24 hours a day
Cutler is in LOVE. He wants to kiss and hold her ALL the time.
He is the best big brother
He was holding her yesterday, and he said "Mom, Kapri has a flashlight on"
he also feels bad for her bellybutton. "Mom, Kapri's bellybutton is owie"
Yesterday we took her in to check her bilirubin count, and it had not gone down, I will be going in tomorrow again to get it checked. Hopefully it goes down, so she does not have to stay at the hospital.
