Well, I am no longer pregnant. I started to have contractions on monday the 29th. Now, doctors tell you not to go into the hospital til the contractions are 5 minutes apart. On monday they were about 20 minutes apart so I wait. On tuesday they were about 10 minutes apart. They were still 10 minutes apart on wednesday, but you must understand that they were getting more painful as time went on and by this time I was ready to cut him out myself.

We go to the hospital.

They want to try to induce regular labor by giving me picotin. Sure, fine, whatever it takes to get him out. After a while, they give me an epidural and I feel MUCH better. Then the labor stalls out. Basically I stop progressing. Thump-thump has moved out of position again. They decide that I will have to have a c-section. Whee.

So, they gut me like a fish.

And now I have a baby. He is freaking adorable. It is kinda sad that even with major abdominal surgery, I am more mobile than when I was pregnant. And since Sean can watch him some, I am also getting more sleep than when I was pregnant.

Also, babies smell really good.

I may try to rejoin society soon. See you then.
