He's here!

Mr Tygh Lloyd Fullagar made his debut on August 15 at 12 : 43 pm!  We are pretty smitten with him!

August 15th began as any other day. I was fast asleep in bed when suddenly things got a bit wet.  I jumped out of the bed and ran to the bathroom.  It was wlaround midnight. My water broke! All I could think was oh my he is a week early and we are suppose to move tomorrow!   Welp, plans changed.  I woke Rygh up and told him we needed to go to the hospital, tygh is coming today!  I called my doctor and told him I was coming in.   At my appointment this week I told him I couldn't have the baby til Sunday so when I talked to him on the phone the first thing he said was "lyn it's not Sunday. "  So I took a shower,  Rygh packed the truck,  and we headed to the hospital!

We got to the hospital around 130 am and they got me checked in.  My water did indeed break and we were going to have a baby. Things were going great til about 4 am when labor set in.  After two hours of running back and forth to the bathroom, throwing up any and everything,  I said call Dr Peters.  I was ready for the epidural! Props to people who do it Au naturale! I was dilated to a 4 at this time. Dr Peters ended his workout a bit early and came and did my epidural. The epidural was bliss.  I could move my feet and feel the contractions just I couldn't feel any pain.

At about 9, I was a 7-8. At 11, I was a 10 and ready to push! Now, I pushed for about an hour and 45 minutes.   Tygh decided to come out face up and needed a bit of suction to come out. He finally made his appearance at 12:43 pm.  We were elated that he was here and healthy.

I really thought I would be in labor all day. I really expected to be exhausted.  Let me just say labor was a breeze. Tygh was ready to make his appearance!  We are so blessed!

We also moved into our new house on August 16th! More on that later. ..
