We are so happy to announce that our sweet Reece has arrived! It was a surprising delivery. My due date was on Wednesday the 27th. I just knew that if any of my babies were going to come early it would be him, with moving, packing, and everything I did not take it easy this pregnancy. So when I went over my due date I was discouraged. I had a doctor's appointment on Thursday and the doctor didn't want to induce me because I was making no progress towards labor.
Then on Friday, my sister and mom headed to Time Square with out any worry of me going into labor. I went to put Hudson down for a nap at around noon and started having contractions. Well within an hour they grew stronger and closer together pretty quick. I was getting nervous because I couldn't get a hold of my mom. So I went over to my sister in laws house. She was telling me I need to go to the hospital asap!! I had a 19 hour labor with Hudson and I knew I wasn't dilated the day before so I was not too worried.
Chris got out of work early found my mom and sister and headed to the train. We got to the hospital around 5pm and by now it was getting pretty intense. They go to check dilatation and I was not at even a 1, which had me discouraged! So as they were deciding wither or not to admit me my water broke! By now the contractions never stopped! They moved me into the delivery room and a couple minutes later I was feeling the urge to push, so they check me and his head was already starting to come. No time for an epidural!! I begin to panic..natural childbirth has never been on my to do list! But a couple of minutes later Reece was here!! 8lbs 10 oz 20 1/2 inches..
We are so happy to have him in our family...I know my life is going to be crazy with two!
