He's out! Wilson Sass Blumberg. 8:10 p.m. - only 4 minutes of pushing. Email with pictures and details t com ater tonight.
| mattb2518 It's finally showtime! |
|
| mattb2518 Ok. We have a name. Now we just need a baby. |
|
| mattb2518 8-9 cm now. Almost there! |
|
| mattb2518 Still only 4-5 cm dilated, but major progress and the baby's head has dropped quite a lot. |
|
| mattb2518 Hospitals are weird places. People keep coming in to ask Mariquita how she is doing (fine) and never even introduce themselves or say w ... ... |
|
| mattb2518 Still nothing. The little nipper must like his current environment a bit too much. |
|
| mattb2518 This really feels like deja vu from 54 weeks ago with Casey - same docs, nurses, schedule, room next door |
|
| mattb2518 Still only 3 cm dilated. Pitocin dosage has been increased. Water has been broken. Still no verdict on the name. |
|
| mattb2518 Getting there on names. We are down to a short list of two. Running out to get lunch takeout and contemplate the options... |
|
| mattb2518 Mariquita is itchy - weird side effect of the epidural, I guess. But other than that, she feels nothing. |
|
| mattb2518 The epidural is in! Boy, is that an enormous needle. |
|
| mattb2518 If you inflate a surgical glove like a balloon, it kind of looks like a turkey... |
|
| mattb2518 The pitocin is in - inducement in progress. |
|
| mattb2518 Moved into the Delivery Room. Much better than the triage area. Now we wait. |
|
| mattb2518 Mariquita hates needles - the IV is in. Last time it was the most painful part for her! |
|
| mattb2518 Quick ultrasound - the little guy is in the right position. Cooperative from the get go. |
|
| mattb2518 Finally feeling like I have a good use for Twitter here. |
|
| mattb2518 Getting on the list for a private room. Important, but not looking good. |
|
| mattb2518 At the hospital now. Mariquita admitted and on a monitor. Big day! |
