He's Here!

I know a lot of you know already but for those of you who don't we had the baby! He came on his due date! My water started breaking early that morning at about 3 or so. I went to the hospital at about 9:00 a.m. My contractions were very easy to get through and very spaced out and progression was slow. By 4:30 they gave me pitosin (Don't know how to spell that) to speed up the process since it had been so long sine my water broke. That did the trick and 6 hours after that and an epidural he was born. He came very easily and I pushed for about ten minutes. They put up a mirror and I actually got to see him be born! It was awesome to say the least. I didn't get to do that with the other two births.

Welcome Owen Paul Reid

Ohhhhhhhh, congratulations!
He is such a handsome baby. Except, I never got to hold him Sunday, so I call first dibbs on him this sunday! You hear that everyone? That is of course, if it's alright with you!?
Again, congrats! That's a very special time for you.
