He's here!!! Kai was born Thursday, April 9th, 2009. He weighed 6 pounds 10 ounces and he's 19 inches long. He is such a good baby, we couldn't be happier!
Our due date isn't until next Saturday (April 18th), but I went in for my regular doctor's appointment on Wednesday and she told me she wanted to induce me the next day because she still didn't feel like he was gaining enough wait, so she set up the induction and I went back to work. I worked until almost 10pm just trying to get caught up...When I left work I started having the worst back pain ever, and was up almost all night with back pain. When we got to the hospital at 7 am they hooked me up to the monitor and told me my contractions were 5 minutes apart and within 30 minutes they were 2 minutes apart. I was REALLY excited to see the anesthesiologist about a half hour later. :) We were in labor until 7:00pm and then I pushed for 23 minutes and he was out...
We are loving having him here, and are getting excited to take him home from the hospital. I have never loved anything as much as being his mom...but watching Darin be his Dad is a definite close second.
