After much anticipation, Liam Jack made his grand entrance in this world April 30th, 2008 at 3:41pm. At a routine doctor's appt. we discovered I was 5 cm dilated, and 75% effaced. The first words out of my mouth were, "Can I just go get some lunch first?" The one time I hadn't stuffed my face before my appt. For any experienced labor and deliver'er (yes, we'll call that a word) you know the cardinal rule of birthing a child: nothing to eat or drink. So, as I was wheeled off to labor and delivery, Kevin made a mad dash back to Manchester to drop the kids of with a friend.
Thank goodness my labor was short. Thank God Kevin made it there to see it. I was 8-9 cm dilated, and Kevin had still not returned from dropping the boys off. 3pm, much to my relief Kevin calls to tell me he's in the parking lot walking in. 40 min later, I began pushing.
