It's a boy!!
Morgan Eugene Thompson. Born February 18th, at 5:11 am. (I guess he got tired of waiting too!) 9 lbs 7 oz. Whew!
We had a little drama but we're all doing great. I started contracting about 1am saturday night/sunday morning - whatever you want to call it. They were about 15 minutes apart so I decided to wait a little while to see if they were going to go away or not. By 2am I decided to call the doctor. They wanted me to come in and get checked. I woke CJ up and he showered and we went to the hospital. By the time we got to the hospital my contractions were about 5 minutes apart and I was pretty uncomfortable. They got me registered in I told them I was a repeat c-section. At 4:05am I had a couple of contractions while the nurse was in the room with me and she was like "OK, well let me check you. OH Honey! No wonder you're uncomfortable - you're COMPLETE!" WHAT?!?! Well, they were swamped that night with patients and the on-call doctor was actually in the OR with another c-section but that sent everyone into high gear.
They got an IV in for me, drew my blood, sent me upstairs, and the anesthesiologist was like "Hey, I usually wait for your lab work to come back but we don't have time, here are the risks, do you consent?" Of course! "sign here" Wait I'm having a contraction. "no honey, grit your teeth and sign, it doesn't have to be legible, we don't have a minute." Oh! OK. scribble scribble.
They pulled off 3 liters of fluid plus a 9 1/2 lb baby - needless to say I felt like I had lost half of myself.
We're all doing great now. Here are a couple of pics to tide you over.
