7 lbs 10 oz bundle of joy!

Our Fam Bam

Finally baby Kailani McKenzie Teague was born after a 12 hour labor on Thursday Feb 19, 2009 at 7:40 am! She weight 7.1 lbs and and 20 in long!

I was admitted to the hospital at 7pm and induced by 8, I tried to take the pain & do without the epidural but by midnight the pain proved to much, and I requested the epidural, which did hurt but was worth it, I don't think I could have taken the pain for another 6 hrs! Its really crazy to think how our mothers & grandmothers did it without ant meds I can totally give them a huge pat on the back for that! Anyway by 3am I am 6.5 cm dialated and 30 min later I was 8 cm, I was so ready to go, but the nurse stopped the pitocin meds so it kinda slowed it down & it look until 6:45 am to reach a full 10 cm by 7am I was pushing & by 7:30 my dr came in and about 10 pushes & 10 min later baby was born! It was extremely exciting & overwhelming to hear & see baby out after 9 months, and yes I did cry! Anyway after two days in a hospital bed i was ready to come home which we were supposed to be home by 4 pm on Friday but didn't come home until 630 Dana& me were so annoyed to have spent nearly 3 hrs extra at the hospital in this confined room. Anyway we're finally home &baby is all healthy and happy to be home!

So this weekend I tried to finish up the baby's room, thanks to my sister who sent me the crib set, it came together so much better! The only thing is I can't fit much more since Dana hasn't moved the futon out of the room & can't since we'll have visitors, so other than the futon the room looks really cute! I still need some finishing touches but I think for the most part we're good until the baby comes, which should be in 7 days or less, hopefully!

False Labor

So this whole weekend I had been having labor pains & decided after 3 days to go the hospital. So Sunday morning at 3 am we head to the hospital, sit there for 2 hours & nothing - apparently I hadn't dialated enough & it was just false labor, So my unborn child is already causing me pain for no reason!

So its 5 am & Dana is starving so we went to get McDonalds, not to mention the nurse gave me a sleeping pill so by the time we were driving home I couldn't even think of food.
Anyway it was kinda exciting knowing that she could be coming any time soon - I really can't wait for this to be over & hopefully it's soon now that I only have 2 weeks left.
