This my first blog so I am going back a little. This is Kellan's hospital photo taken on Sept.30th the day we were to leave the hospital.
My pregnancy was fairly easy, no morning sickness or any major concerns. In my 7th month we flew to Las Vegas for husband's High School Reunion. I swelled up and kept most of it until about 2 weeks after Kellan was born. My Dr. scheduled an induction for Monday Sept. 29th but strong contractions began on Saturday Sept. 27th at 12:05 am. We went to the hospital at 8am after stopping at the DMV and Mcdonald's! We were sent home around 10am since there was no "real" progress. I was told to come back when the contractions were closer together (closer than 5 min) OR when they became "unbearable". I made my husband take me back to the hospital around 10 pm Saturday night. My contractions were then 3 min. apart and I really wanted drugs to help me get some sleep. Sunday Sept. 28th came and still no notable progress, I was started on pitocin and received my epidural at 2pm. Kellan arrived at 4:44pm Sunday afternoon. She is the greatest thing I have ever done!
