Jason Ezekiel is here! I know I haven't posted in a really long time, and I left you hanging at the worst time possible. I apologize. Life has been pretty hectic.
Anyways, Jason was born on Saturday, Oct. 6th at 4:28 am. He was 7 lbs. 6 oz. and 21 in. long.
On Tuesday, Oct. 2nd I started having irregular contractions. Then, that night I started my bloody show. I was still having irregular contractions on Wednesday.
Thursday was when I was able to actually time my contractions. They would jump around a little bit, but for the most part they were five to seven minutes apart. I got checked on Thursday and I was two centimeters dilated and almost completely thinned out.
On Friday, my contractions got more intense and they were closer together. They were three to five minutes apart. I went to my OB that morning, and I was three centimeters dilated and again almost completely thinned out.
My OB then said to go to the hospital because he thought I was close enough and that I would have a baby within 24 hours.
We arrived at the hospital around noon on Friday. They then started pitocin around one and two in the afternoon. I labored for the rest of the day and night.
On Saturday around 2:30 am, I started pushing.
Finally, at 4:28 am on Saturday, Oct. 6th, 2012, Jason Ezekiel was born. He is a healthy baby boy. His doctor says that he is perfect.
He had an appointment on Wednesday to check his weight, and he was already 7 lbs 5 oz. On Monday he had been 7 lbs 2 oz. He is an excellent eater, and a pretty calm baby. We are extremely lucky and happy with the family that we have.
