You know you are the mom of 4 kids when it takes you almost 4 weeks to post about the new little one. Our beautiful Kyler Jack arrived on April 30th at 3:03 am. He weighed 7lbs 13oz and was 21 inches.
I went into labor Thursday 29th and right about the same time I was going to come into the hospital, they called for me to come in for my scheduled induction. That was super convienent! Even though I was contracting every 2 or 3 minutes they still put me on pitocin. Labor really began around 11:30 pm. The baby was really high and facing up, so we thought we were in it for the long haul. 3 hours later at 2 am I decided to go ahead with the epidural. I got pretty sick during the procedure. Fortunately that helped bring the baby down, and I dilated from a 5 to a 10 in about 20 minutes. They hurried to call Dr. Beck in at 2:30. He turned the baby face down, I pushed once to get his head out, and one more half push to get the rest of him out. Probably my easiest labor...sorry Ellie...Jack beat you by about an hour. I have been blessed with easy deliveries. We think Jack looks more like Ellie. He is a beautiful baby like the rest of our kids.
We have been so blessed to have 4 healthy wonderful children. Life is good. Our family is complete. I couldn't ask for more!
