Preslee Jo decided to come a little bit early and was born on December 17, 2008 at 12:58 A.M. weighing 6 lb's 12 oz, and 19 inches long.
Tuesday morning I had my weekly doc appointment and that's where I found out I was already dialated to a four! Dr. Meredith sent me home and said if the contractions got any worse to head back up to their office. But he thought she'd come within the week. I was thrilled hoping she would come before Christmas! My mom took me shopping around Rexburg when suddenly I went into labor! Pat met me up at the doctor's office where we learned within two hours I was now at a six! Before we knew it we were checking into the hospital. To make a very long story short, I stayed dialated at a six until the doc came in at 11:30 P.M. to break my water. Once he broke it, the delivery went fast! And by 12:58 AM I delivered a baby!! Pat was great through the entire thing, he was very excited which kept me in a good mood! I did have an epidural though, make no mistake there. The epidural made it pretty darn easy, it was just a long process waiting.
Don't mind me in the pics, I lost more blood than normal so I'm a pretty darn pale. Anyways Pres has Pat wrapped around her little finger, and we love her more than anything! We feel very blessed to have such a healthy baby! We'll post some more pics that were taken with a better camera later!

ReplyDeleteMemphis is good! I'm enjoying being home.. ty on the other hand.. ha well he just thinks two weeks is too long.. but today he has been hurting (kidney stones movin we think) but hopefully that gets better.. We haven't really done too much yet just lots of shopping and eating.. next week is going to be much busier.. if ty feels better we will probably end up going to the grizz vs. lakers game and to answer your other question we just buy all the presents out here.. getting it back will be the tough part. I was already over my 50 lb limit coming out here.. ty had to pack more of my stuff in his bag.. but im excited to get back.. we will be back for new years we should get everyone together if yall dont already have plans.. ok i just wrote a novel.. i probably should have just text you all this but o well hah
