He is finally here!  

Posted by Heidi in , ,

Well, after a long long wait and an even longer labor, Owen made his debut on April 1 2007 at 7:03 p.m
He weighed in at 8 lbs 9 oz and was 20.5 inches long.
We were shopping at Wal Mart and my contractions picked up, even though I was skeptical to go to Labor and Delivery, we went and YAY, they said I was 2-3 cm and I could stay, we were really going to have a baby this time!!!
I went natural to 7 cm and then relented to having an epidural, the pain was very intense since they augmented my labor with Pitocin.
I labored all day and at 6:57 they had me start pushing, a mere 6 minutes later, and three rounds of pushes, there he was!!!

here are a few pictures for you to enjoy.. he is a really good baby, he loves to nurse and sleep..and of course, he does what all babies are good at, he poops a lot!!
He is gaining weight like crazy and is already over 9 lbs.
I hope to be here more to post pictures of all the kids..now that he is here and we are getting settled with life with baby.
Until the next time.....
