A new love of my life, Owen James, has arrived!!! I was induced on Tuesday, August 2nd. It is Ryan's dad's birthday. We are so blessed.
Pitocin was started at 7:30 and I got the epidural at 10am. The doctor who examined me said I was 1-2cm when I was admitted which is weird. I've learned that every doctor finds different measurements. So I was still at 2cm when I got the epidural. I then progressed to 4-5cm at noon maybe and was there for the longest time. Dr. Becher checked me at 4:45pm and I was finally 10cm. I had to get more epidural at 3 or so because it wore off and I was in excruitiating pain. It was horrible! Plus I was vomiting at times. I got to push at 5:30pm and by 5:35pm (after 3 pushes) Owen was born.
He doesn't look like the boys!! He looks like Owen, per Brennan. Brennan and Shane are doing great. Shane was weird with me in the hospital but now that we are home, Shane seems to be doing okay. Brennan loves him and wants to hold him. Shane gives him toys and hugs him. He was excited to see Owen this morning.








What a precious family!!!!
