The finale

So....my epidural stopped working. What a nightmare! They had to come reinsurt it and couldnt get it in. I thought I was going to die. Long story short, after about 4 more tries, and me in pain more than I could bare, I finally got some relief, and it was time to push. 10 min later, we had a little Luke! He is 6 lbs 15oz, and is just a bundle of joy. We will post pictures some other day, but I just wanted to let you know that mom and baby are now doing well. We are both exhausted, but doing well:) On the up side, Brents epidural went perfectly. They will take it out when its time to go home. He is not looking forward to that, as it keeps him perfectly relaxed in moments of craziness.

He and my mom were both amazing coaches, as were the nurses that we had. I couldnt have been luckier to have such a great team behind me. Yeah for babies, and yeah for getting delivery over with!
