Birth Story

Thursday night at about 730pm. I was laying on the couch at my mom's and felt something weird---hoping it was my water breaking I went to the bathroom, but it was blood. We headed to the hospital and got there at 810pm. Well, I was having the contractions but they slowed down when I drank a bunch of water and the bleeding stopped so they sent me home. We got home about 1230am and I started having very painful contractions about five minutes apart. We headed back in about 230am. I started bleeding a little more when we go to the hospital so they decided to go ahead with the CSection. I was relieved cause my regular doctor was the one on-call. Charlie was born at 510am. They told us the placenta had started to tear away a little bit. He weighed a whopping 6lbs 3oz and was 18 1/2 inches long. (Jonah who was born at the same time, (2 weeks early) was 7lbs 13 oz) I didn't expect Charlie to be so small. So here he is:
