Caleb...

I am so excited Caleb is here. Everything is going so well. Add VideoYesterday I came in and started the induction around 6am. Got my epidural about 4cm before I really started feeling anything. It seemed like no time before my doctor broke my water and it progressed VERY quickly from that point on. When the time came to start pushing, I pushed through 1 contraction and on the second contraction my doctor stopped me and said he was here! It was a VERY quick and easy delivery. I was expecting a lot of time pushing, since I pushed for 2 hours with Benjamin. The one downside is that I have another 4th degree tear. I am doing great though. I got up this morning and took a shower and have been moving around easily. Caleb is nursing well. He is so tiny and so cute! I am so in love with him. He slept through the night and I got him up at 6 to feed. Benjamin met his little brother last night and seemed very excited. I don't think he realizes that Caleb will be coming home with us. We are still in the hospital right now, just enjoying our time here resting and visiting with people. We will be going home tomorrow. Well let me post some pictures.... Enjoy them.
