Nice to Be Home

We got home yesterday afternoon and it sure is more comfortable than the hospital. The first two nights were pretty rough but I think we are slowly starting to figure things out. Both of us feel much better today. We are blessed by the support of a great family and can't express enough appreciation. As always, keep checking back for updates.

Nathan's Birth

We went in Thursday night just before midnight to get induced. Melissa was given the pill to get things started and we slept (tried) on it until morning. She got regular contractions but the medical staff didn't like how slowly she was progressing so the doc came in, broke her water, and gave her pitocin. It seemed like within a matter of minutes she was starting true labor. She handled the pain for a long time until she finally had enough. They gave her the edpidural and it was happy sailing from there. She only had to endure about 30 minutes of pushing before he came out. He was quiet at first, but quickly announced his presence with a nice scream that even the doctor flinched from! The first night was pretty tough with very little sleep but we seem to be slowly figuring things out as time passes. Definitely as challenging as everyone said, but the rewards far exceed what we ever imagined.

Cheers,

Brian, Melissa and Nathan
