I would like to introduce all of you to our newest son. Henry Michael Horner was born on Aug. 19th, 2009 at 12:49 pm, weighing in at 6lbs 8oz and stretching out to be 19 inches long. He came out crying which made us cry. Everything went wonderfully. My delivery began at 5pm the night before. After midnight I had not moved from being 3 cent. dialated they let me sleep until 4am the next morning before starting again. After starting the drip at 4am I progressed well. My contractions were coming every minute and they were hurting worse and worse. After they checked my dialation again I had progressed to 8 cent. in a quick amount of time. We called for the epdiural and in the middle of the epidural a nurse came in and requested the ansth. nurse to hurry to the O.R. stat. He was like I can leave this needle in the middle of her back.....needless to say while I was having contractions and feeling a lot of emotions this made me want to freak out. After my epidural life was better and I was able to push Henry our in 19 minutes.
After Henry was born he had a little trouble breathing at first so they kept a watch on him in the nursery. After about 8 hours he was doing well enough to come to our room and I was able to have some time with him.
A week and 1/2 before this Phil broke his foot walking down my sister's driveway. After a surgery the Thursday before Phil was commanded to stay off his foot for 6 weeks and had to use his knee walker to move around anywhere. Because of that my mother-in law was in town and was able to be apart of the delivery. It's been a crazy time but all in all it has been a great time. I hope to keep you all posted on how Henry grows as well as Hudson's progression.
