so, now that things have calmed down a bit, i have a little more time to write a proper blog.
my little girl, quincy, was born November 19th at 1:57 pm, exactly 3 weeks early
the brief details, that every woman who's had a bad labor will hate me for...
i was in actual labor for 6 hours. i had no epidural. didn't want one, but then the pain was so bad i changed my mind. but by the time i changed my mind, we could see there wasn't time. i dialated from 3 cm to 8 cm in an hour...there was no way i'd make it to get an epidural
at 12:30 i informed the nurse i felt the urge to push. so she notified the doctor and we were on our way.
the doctor came in at around 1:30, maybe a little before. i pushed until 1:57 and that's when she came out. it was a hideously painful experience, but i'd do it again.
so, we have quincy caid; 6lbs 11oz, 18 1/2 inches
on another note (but related to the baby birth story), my boyfriend came up to visit me. last minute, he bought a plane ticket. he was here from thursday to sunday. he came to be with me and the baby. i was so so happy! since we live so far apart, we don't see each other very often at all.
so, on that note, i have to say, that i have definitely fallen for him. yes, he's the one i talked about in blogs where i was trying to decide between Mr. Here or Mr. There. obviously Mr. There won out.
when he walked into my hospital room on thursday, my heart flip-flopped. he's definitely a special man to me. the whole weekend, he was with me and quincy. he supported me and helped me and showed me exactly how loving someone can be. i mean, hell, he flew from texas to wyoming just to be with me...and her.
i hadn't planned on falling for him, but i really have. he's shown me a side of love that i have never knew actually existed. i always wanted it, i always craved it, but never experienced it, so i thought it was just a make believe movie thing. not so.
we had an amazing weekend...hanging out.
so, i've got 2 of the most amazing loves in my life now and its great! the world couldn't get much better...
...the only thing that would make it perfect is if he were here.
