Week 38 6 days - And then there were 3


Well I almost had the last sleep. I checked in with the hospital Sunday night to let them know that I'd not started regular contractions yet but had had a few. So they let me wait until 6:00 am to arrive at the hospital on Monday. I started having regular 1 hr apart contractions at 11pm. At 2:34 am they went to 30mins apart, at 3:00am I had a shower they went to 5mins apart, Matthew called the Doula, we packed and left for the hospital. We arrived at the hospital at 5:00am with contractions that were 2mins apart, our Doula Allison Gunn was right behind us. They brought me straight to the birthing room. Baby was checked and all was going well. They checked to see how I was doing and to everyones surprise I was 7+ cm's. The Dr. arrived shortly after and I started to push at 8:00am.









Here's me at 3:30 am between contractions.















Baby Ronan Kelly Keown was born November 19, 2007 at 11:02am, he weighed 7lbs 13oz.









We spent several hours in the delivery room bonding. Then off to our hospital room. Private room is definitely the way to go.



We arrived home today Wednesday, November 21st at 12:30pm. Baby, mommy and daddy are all doing great.
