On March 5, 2009 at 2:03AM my water broke!!! I woke up Dano, called my mom crying and then took a quick shower before heading to the hospital. I started having contractions when we pulled into the parking lot ( at 2:54 haha I know all the times...sad). I started out dilated at a 3 1/2 and 90% thinned out. ( The day before I had a doc appt and i was a 1 1/2 and 80% thinned out. The doc had told me there was no way I was having the baby this week!! The baby had different plans!) Mom and Megs got to the hospital about 5 AM because they were too excited to sleep! About an hour after they got there I decided to get an epidural... I was done trying to be tough! The epidural was great! I felt like I was floating on clouds! They transferred me to the delivery room a little while later and there we waited. Wyatt came to hang out and later picked up my brothers. Then Clint, my dad, and Dano's parents came. It was a full house! My epidural wore off on one side by this time. The contractions were intense!! We decided to redo the epidural. It took a long time to kick in but finally it did. They checked me and I was dilated all the way and completely thinned out! Time for a practice push!! It went good so the doctor was called. By the way my doctor is the most awesome person! I love her! Her name is Doctor Peatross and she is so funny and entertaining and made delivery as fun as it could be haha! At 12:27 pm I started pushing and 3 pushes later at 12:33 pm Navy May Shreeve was here! I was totally overcome with emotion, I could barely see out of my eyes! She was absolutely perfect! I just can't get enough of this baby! Thanks to all of our family and friends that have helped us and that have visited and especially to Mom and Megs for being there with from the crack of dawn till the night.
