Adler's birth story
Alder is now a week old so it is about time i created her own site and told her full story. In the early morning hours of the 13th Harley was extremely annoying and Rigby very fussy so i was awake more than i was asleep from midnight to about 6am. I was extremely annoyed and tired. so when Rigby wanted to get up i let her. put her in the living room with cartoons on, and i crawled back into bed. i left the doors open so i could hear her, in case she needed me. after about an hour or so she did come looking for me and was asking for juice so i set her up with breakfast and again crawled back into bed. sometime in here daddy came home and continued to care for Miss Rigby and let mommy sleep. at about 8:30a there was nothing i could do about it i had to potty so i had to get up. while on the toilet i had a weird sensation, i assumed it was my water breaking but as i was already peeing it was hard to tell. it felt nothing like when my water broke for Rigby so i was unsure. again unlike Rigby i had no contractions yet. so i went ahead and made some toast and sat on the couch to eat. after about 10 mins i had my 1st contraction and told daddy it was time to go. daddy started calling auntie Avril to watch Rigby and mommy started to slowly move towards getting dressed to get out of the house. the hospital bag was already in the car. so as soon as auntie Avril showed up we were on the road. it was a Tuesday morning so we had to contend with everyday rush hour. the drive was getting hairy as the contractions were very consistent and every 5-7 mins. we did arrive at the hospital and mommy had per-registered but that did not matter we still had to wait almost 10 min in admitting as mommy screamed in pain. finally a nurse wheeled mommy up to labor and delivery. after slipping into a lovely hospital gown mommy had a check and found out that she was already 9cm dilated and past the time to receive pain killing drugs. this was the most upsetting thing i think i have EVER heard. i was so very upset i kept whining, bitching, and moaning that there had to be something to give me. no luck. my doc showed up and about 10 mins later i started pushing. i was not very good at this. the pain was so overwhelming that i could not concentrate on anything else. eventually to help relieve pain mommy got a cather and eventually got cut to help get Adler out. at 10:55a Adler Nicole Scott arrived and mommy could breath a little easier as the extreme pain was over. daddy did the honors and cut the cord and mommy got to snuggle with the new arrival as the doc did her job and sewed mommy up.
