The delivery story...
The week prior to Jack's birth was a little rough. I had several days of painful contractions that lead straight to nowhere. The waiting game was driving us all crazy. John accompanied me to my regularly scheduled doctor's appointment Thursday morning. I knew if anyone could win over my doctor and encourage him to induce it would be John. He worked! They hit it off chit chatting and next thing we knew my doctor was making a "call" up to labor and delivery. Pitocin did the trick to push along my contractions. A successful epidural allowed us to watch a Redbox while my labor progressed. 20 minutes of pushing and there he was! Our experience was 100% positive from start to finish. Because of the upcoming holiday most residents were off, leaving only the seasoned staff to provide us excellent care. We were discharged the following evening to return home.
