December 4 started out as an ordinary day. Hunter and I were at home, and I was thinking about running some errands. Then around 9:30 AM I started to think perhaps I might be in the early stages of labor and within an hour I was certain that I was in labor. By noon we were at the hospital and I was told by the triage nurse that I was still in early labor and would likely be sent home. However I made some progress so my doctor decided to let me stay and we were moved into labor and delivery room. Sometime around 2:30 PM I started to receive a low dosage of pitocin and shortly after that my water was broke. Up until this point I hadn't really been feeling a lot of pain, but it quickly intensified and by 4:30 PM I was ready for my epidural. By the time the anesthesiologist arrived and finished administering the epidural another hour had passed and I was fully dilated. Three little pushes later and Katelyn arrived at 6:03 PM.
Katelyn arrived December 4 at at 6:03 PM. She weighed 6lbs 12 ounces and measured 20 inches.

I'm so glad to hear the story and see all the pictures. I had no idea how (quickly) this little miss entered the world. I'm glad they didn't send you home!
