Baby Uriah Skylar McFadden






OK so I figured while I have a rush of energy I will give everyone an update. My water broke at 2am Friday morning. I tried to sleep alittle and make sure the baby was moving. We got to the hospital after we showered, ate, and of course walked prince. So we arrived at 730 am at the hospital I was 3cm, at noon I was at 4 cm, the midwife was talking platocin and I didnt want meds wanted to try my best to go med free. Well she talked to us about nipple stimulation so I tried it.. Well who would of known that it was so dog on powerful it thru me into a 7 minute contraction the babies heart rate dropped and scared everyone for a minute or so.. So I was monitored and my contractions started coming regular after that moment.. So if any of you wanted to know nipple stimulation works. Wow is all I have to say. So at 4pm I was still at 4cm and she said I was making progress. She put me in the bath tub to relax me well a shift change a 6pm for midwives and 7pm for nurses. I was in the tub for about 2 hours and it was awesome it really took some of the pain off me.. So I got out of the tub the contractions were closer but at 7 I was still at 4cm.. Oh my this was going to take absolutely forever.. So I told Jeff I was exhausted and needed something to let me relax and rest for an hour if I wanted to give natural birth. So I took the narcatics. I slept for an hour, but heard every conversation that was going on. I woke up to the doctor talking about platocin again and Jeff and Ivy told her to leave so they could discuss it and they prayed over me and in the mean time I had to pee/poo and the nurse wouldnt let me go to the bathroom due to the narcatics... So I peed in the bed pan and told her i need to poo and push and she said don't push.. The doc came and asked if the platocin had been started and the nurse said no.. So I was examined and throwing the towel in for an epidural due to pain.. wow the pain who would of known.. (but its all worth it after its over).. So no more than the doctor examining me 10minutes ago and jeff and Ivy praying over me. I had went from 4cm to 10 cm.. No lie.. The doc examined me and said oh he's crowning lets get the show on the road. Needless to say no epidural for me.. 30 minutes of pushing and our Handsome Uriah Skylar McFadden had arrived. So we got home yesterday and everything is going ok.. I had a rough night last night full of feeding, puking, and dirty diapers.. Jeff took over at 630 so I could sleep and it felt like i slep a good 8 hours and it'd only been 2. So we are doing well keep us in your prayers i'm off for 55 days and jeff 10.. We have company coming in the beginning of june and look forward to it. God Bless and I'll post some more pics as they come in since jeff is documenting everything.. Absolutely everything.

I love him.
God Bless Kattie
