We Have Ourselves a Baby!!
Dear Lord did that happen quick!
Courtney woke up around 1:00-1:30 and was feeling a lot of contractions and pressure. They got closer and harder and she called my mom and then me and by 3:15am, we were headed to the hospital. By the time we got here, her contractions were on top of eachother. We found out later that she was in transition in the car.
We get to triage and the nurse starts griping at Court for waiting too long. (oh because at this time she is writhing in pain and being quite vocal.) Court asks if she can go to the bathroom and the nurse said no because she is afraid that Court would pop the baby out in the toilet. She checks Court and starts freaking out saying that Courtney is complete. Call the doctor, get the room ready, mass panic!
Nathan wasn't there yet because he was waiting on Kacy to get to the house to stay with the girls. I call him (thankfully right when Kacy had gotten there) and told him to book it or he was going to miss the birth of his son. By this time Courtney was wanting an epidural and the nurses are like, ya right. Too late. She is literally screaming, it was quite intense. She wanted to push, but the doctor wasn't there, the on call doctor wasn't there, and Nathan wasn't there. So the nurses were trying to make her wait and she was wanting to push. Super intense people!
Nathan finally shows up and they make me leave. I was so sad because I wanted to be in the room, but it was mass panic. There wasn't a doctor there yet and Courtney was really bearing down hard.
Anyways, the nurse actually delivered the baby and Dr. Moseley came in in time to deliver the after fun.
He was born at 3:50am. From the time we got to the hospital and she pushed him out, we had been there 15 minutes.
It was fast people!
So now.... INTRODUCING!!!
Judah Reign Watkins
He was 6lbs 13 oz, (3.1 kilos) and 20 inches long (51 cm)
The craziest thing is Courtney's water didn't break the entire time, and when the baby came out, so did the water sac, intact! He had meconium, so they had to suction him out for about 20 minutes before Courtney got to hold him.
Okay, funny story. My dad took an Ambien before he went to bed last night because he didn't get much sleep the night before. He was totally stoned and could barely wake up and kept falling asleep. It was hilarious!
Please pray for Courtney though. She is bleeding abnormally and they are getting worried about it. Her uterus needs to start contracting more. It was just so fast that her body needs to catch up. They gave her some medicine to help her hemorrage naturally, but she needs some spiritually intervention!
Jon is still at home since Judah got here so quick. He is going to come up here when Lyric wakes up.
ANYWAYS!!!!
I have an amazingly beautiful baby nephew!! He is doing great and is in the nursery right now. I'm just so excited!
I want a baby now! :)
