He's here

Devin Pierce Snow is finally here. He was born on November 29, 2011 @ 3:58pm. 7lbs 14oz 20.5"

After having a series of Non Stress Test and Ultrasounds to measure him due to Gestational Diabetes the Doctors at Utah Valley Hospital found that I had low fluid that they recommend that I have him early. My doctor had schedule me to be induce on December 6 to have him. But on November 28 I learned that I will have to have him early then planned. So after the non stress test we went to get my bags pack and head in. I arrived at the hospital and the admitted me in and started the process. At my doctors appointment that day my doctor had check my cervix's and I haven't dilated at all so they put in a gel like substance to help soften my cervix. At 6:00 am they came and removed they gel thing and it did help I was dilated to a two in a half. At 6:30 am they started poctin to help induce labor. Well I tried to last as long as I can with out a epidural but about 8 o clock I couldn't take the pain so I got the epidural, then shortly after I received the epidural my doctor came in to break my water. Then finally about 3:20pm my doctor came in and checked me and said I was fully dilated and it was time to start pushing. After pushing for a half in hour he had arrived. He was 7 pounds 14 ounce and 20.5 inches long. He is still in the hospital up at primary children's hospital. He was struggling with feeding, but he is doing a lot better and I'm know just hoping and praying that he can come home some time soon. I really hate not having him here with me when I'm home. It doesn't feel right with out him, but I know he needs to be up there to receive the help that he needs. He is a trooper and I love him with all my heart and I can't believe he is already here.
