The Wright Way: Introducing Katelyn Elizabeth Wright!

Katelyn Elizabeth Wright was born October 30th at 5:49 pm. She weighed 8 lbs, 0 oz, and was 19 3/4 inches long.

Katelyn came 11 days early. Madison was 6 days late, so I wasn't expecting her yet. I was so sure she wouldn't be coming, that I didn't think my water had really broken. When I finally decided it had, I told Brian to come home from work and we went over to the hospital. I wasn't having any contractions, but my water had definitely broken, so I was started on Pitocin. It took a little while to start working, but when it did kick in, they got hard fast. I was dilated to a 4, right before getting my epidural. As soon as the epidural was in, I was a 10. Luckily I had the epidural, because it took my doc 45 minutes to get there. Once he arrived, I pushed for about 10 minutes, and here she was.

My labor and delivery with Katelyn were so different than Madison. With Madison I had contractions for 24 hours before they finally broke my water. Then I dilated within a few hours, but had to push for well over an hour. I thought I knew a little of how things would go the second time around, but I guess I didn't know anything. :)

So now that I got all the boring words out of the way. Here is a picture overload.

Madison was excited to have Daddy home the next morning. She helped Daddy make breakfast.

Madison really liked the Dr Pepper Mommy was drinking for a headache.

After an extremely boring Halloween sitting in the hospital, we convinced our doctors and nurses to let us go home first thing in the morning, Nov 1st.
