Labor && delivery
On Sunday night I went in to get induced. They gave me medicine to soften my cervics around 6:00pm. Overnight I dilated to 3cm. Then they started me on potocin around 8:00am to kick me into active labor but I stayed at the same dilation all day until they broke my water around 6:30pm, I went from 3cm to 8cm in a matter of 2 hours. Then the last 2cm took me about 10 minutes. It all happened so fast that my nurse ended up delivering my baby boy! It was a very difficult birth compared to Wyatt because I had back labor && no medications (I caved && said I wanted them but it was too late) with three pushes little man was out!
Husband
my husband did such a good job and has been so supportive. He’s been my rock the entire pregnancy && he’s an amazing daddy to both of my children, I don’t think I’ve said how much i love && appreciate him enough!
How incredibly grateful I am to have a man like you to take care of me and our babies. Mama's don't forget to give our men the credit they deserve for being the support we don't always need but want. Love you babe, Thank you for everything you do.
Big brother
Wyatt came to visit the next morning && was overly excited to see his baby brother he held him && Kissed him so much.
Now that we are home he he has been very helpful with diaper changes && calming Colt down when he’s upset.
I’m so proud of you Wyatt James.
