story is so much different than Braxton's! I
was at home with Braxton, and Jared was at
work. I started having some contractions,
but I figured they were just Braxton hicks, since
I wasn't due for another 2 weeks. I was late
10 days with Braxton, so I expected the worst.
I went about my day
as usual, but the contractions were getting
worse. I finally decided to call
Jared. I left a message on his phone to get
home because, "I'm having the baby now."
We called our
friends, Tyler and Jayna Haws, to come over and
sleep at our house with Braxton (he was already in
bed because it was 11 PM by the time we really
went to the hospital.) Everyone was really
relaxed.
We got to the
hospital, checked in, watched some tv (there was
nothing on), and I told them to get the epidural
person there pronto. I got the epidural a
few hours later, and it worked like a dream!
I took a nap, and then decided, "Let's do
this!"
