Noah William

He's Here! Noah William was born 7/15 at 3:34 am. Dr. Beck had stripped my membranes earlier in the week and I would get contractions pretty close together for about 2 hours and then they would go away. I ended up getting my membranes stripped 2 more times and the same would happen. I wasnt having any contractions but my water broke on its own at 1:30am. After getting Presley where she needed to be Zach and I arrived at the hospital at 2:15am and I was already dialated to a 7. I was in terrible pain and it seemed like the nurses were moving so slow. Finally after what seemed like forever going through Admitting and then Trioge they rushed me into a Delivery room where I was already 9cm and fully dialated. My body was moving faster then my doctor so the were eager to give me an epideral hoping it would slow me down just enough for Dr. Beck to arrive. About 10 nurses were running around trying to get everything ready for Dr. Beck and for Noah's arrival. At this point I am trying really hard not to push and Zach was getting a little queesy. My Mom and sister were there for support for both him and I. Dr. Beck finally made it as the Anesthesiologist is rolling out of the room. My legs were numb and my contractions were tolerable at this point.It was time to push. About 2.5 contractions later our little Noah was born. No tearing and no Episotomy.




We are so in love with him. He is super chill and totally adorable. He is eating like a champ and gives me 3 hours between feedings at night. We have already gone through 3 packs of diapers because the kid pees and poops like crazy. Presley is adjusting well to Noah and has been such a good helper. I feel really good for having a baby a week ago. We love our little family so much and are so happy Noah has joined us.
