Q: Ethan Daniel Has Arrived...

I went to my doctors appointment on the 12th and nothing had changed still so she sent me to the hospital to be induced again. This time they broke my water so it actually worked. Everything was going great until about 10 pm or so. I was almost 10 cm, but with every contraction I was having, his heart rate would dip down into the 80s and 90s. It was pretty scary... I ended up having a c-section and he was born at 10:51 pm. We were in the hospital until last night, because he has jaundice, and they had to put him under the uv light to see if that would work. It was working so we got to bring him home, but we had to use a wallaby, which is this thing that you wrap around babies with uv lights in it. It was a pain in the @ss. His levels are still going down so the doctor says we don't have to use it anymore, but we have to get him tested again tomorrow to make sure it is still going down. He weighed 8 lbs. 6 oz. And he was 21 inches long.
