We checked into the hospital and were in our delivery room at 9 in the morning. Derrick and I sat around taking with our funny and entertaining nurse Jeri. She sure was a hoot and made things seem not so stressful. I felt that I was doing pretty good one the stress levels until Jeri came in and said that Jed, my doctor, was going to be coming in to break my water. I started to freak out because I was still waiting for my epidural. Then the door opened and my heart dropped but it was Dr. Silver to give me the epidural then Jed walked in and I told him he was not allowed to break my water till the drugs kicked in. At this time I had sent my mother and Derrick to go get something to eat so that they wouldn't go all day without anything. My sister had stopped in on her lunch to see how I was doing, thanks Heather I really needed you there!!! So if it had not been for her I would have had to get the epidural on my own. Which those who know me best I HATE NEEDLES with a passion. Time came and went after that and started pushing at 7:25 and Sophie was born at 7:44 p.m. I love you Derrick, thank you for the most perfect girl in the world. I don't know if I could have done it without you. You make my life so amazing and I am glad that we went through this incredible experience together.
The rest is history~
Here are some of the pictures that we have taken from the time she was born to her first days st home.
