Thursday night I started timing contractions as they were semi regular and uncomfortable. But as the night went on they grew further apart. Several woke me from sleep. I called the nurse in the morning and they wanted to do s labor check. I ended up being still a 1.5 and high cervix. My OB suggested if I was still having contractions that afternoon she would check me at the hospital as I was scheduled for the pre-op for Monday's csection.
When i arrived at the hospital i mentioned i might be in active labor they skipped the pre-op and went directly to admissions checked me in and my OB checked me and I was at a 3!!! Baby time. The nurses and OB began to scramble to get the csection stuff ready, but I was more worried about my dirty from work husband who was an hour away. It all worked out and DH arrived on time for the csection and my sister was able to pick up all my bags, pillows and infant car seat from my home!! Went into pre-op at 1:30 and she was born at 4:03 on 2-12!!! 9 pounds 2.7 oz of chub!
I am hopefully headed home today and so thankful for my complete family. I will be checking back to hear about my other 3rd tri mommies!!
happy Valentine's Day!❤️

We're doing great, thanks. We did our first Disney trip over Mardi Gras: 1 day at Magic Kingdom, and then a Disney cruise. It was exhausting because my son isn't old enough to drop off at the child care on the ship yet, but still lots of fun for all, and we've already booked another cruise for next year. Other than that, just keeping busy with them, work, and my PhD. So glad DS is fast approaching 3. I think things will finally get a little easier to manage with the kids. We're already headed in that direction, just need him to group up a little more and get potty-trained, then we can stop time, lol.
Sounds like all is going well. So happy your family is finally complete after all you've been through. Hopefully all your boys are helping taking care of you girls and you're getting some rest!
