Caleb Michael Bradshaw is here! He was born on Friday May 16th @ 10:29 pm and weighed 7lb. 6 oz and was 19" long. He was born 12 hours after we went into the hospital. My water had broken so we went in even though I wasnt in active labor and having very few contractions. I was 3 cm when we went in and 5 hours later I was only 4 cm. I still wasnt having really painful contractions but I ended up getting an epidural shortly thereafter. They started pitocin @ 9pm and gave me one small dose. By 10 pm I was fully dilated and ready to push. He was out within 3 pushes healthy and crying. It really was amazing to see life come from you. After having a baby it seems nothing is impossible.
