I saw the doctor on Tuesday afternoon where he checked me and stripped my membranes (sorry to be graphic). I was almost dilated to 4cm, and it didn't take long for me to start feeling crummy after my appointment. I had some pretty good contractions that felt pretty steady. Kari and Mark came over and Neal and I headed to the hospital late that evening. I was admitted around 1am, got my epidural pretty quickly after that and the doc came and broke my water around 2. Things went smoothly and just before 5am and after a couple of pushes, our sweet Noah was born! It was a long night, but totally worth it! I only stayed a day in the hospital so I could be home with my family for Christmas Eve. My wonderful and superhero husband Neal had everything and everyone more than taken care of at home! When we arrived, the house was spotless, the kids were happy and dinner was all taken care of! The kids were thrilled to welcome their new baby brother home on Christmas Eve!
