Koen Clark Lambeth 12-12-12

Me Tyler and Brody welcomed another sweet little guy into our lives on Wednesday the 12th! My mom came up on Tuesday night to stay the night with Brody so we could sneak out at 1 am for our induction. We got to the hospital and I was already dilated to 3cm. We got everything started and they left us to get some rest! My nurse came back at 5 and said I was progressing fast and that I am now at 4cm. Just a short hour and a half after that I got my epidural which was great because my contractions had barely started coming in strong enough to be uncomfortable. Then Dr. G broke my water and everything came to a stop! The reason being is that little baby Koen had been living in what seemed like Lake Powell! When they broke my water so much kept coming out! Dr. G said he had never seen someone with so much! My stomach shrunk down drastically so because of that my uterus was so stretched out it stopped contracting! So they had to up my dosage of everything and finally we got things rolling again! I fell asleep again around 9am and at 10 woke up with the feeling of needing to push, they checked me and I was at 10cm, I pushed 3 times and out he came! It was so calm and fast and amazing! I nursed him only like 20 minutes after being born and we were cleaned up and in our rooms shortly after that! It was definitely the most relaxed labor I have ever had!

Thursday Koen's jaundice got high and we had to do the lights for the last 24 hrs we were there. He hated the goggles :(

On our way home!

Brody was so happy to see us he gave me 10 kisses in a row right when I walked in! I thought he would have a hard time with the baby being at the house but he actually had a harder time with us being gone. He made himself sick about it and threw up! But now he is relieved we are home and I promised him I wouldn't go anywhere without him anytime soon!

Welcome home Koen Clark. I love you so so so much!
