Kenadie Kay Allen
Kenadie Kay Allen arrived Monday night, Feb. 8th at 10:21! She is 8lbs 1.7 oz and 20 1/4 inches long. She has beautiful dark skin and light brown hair. She is so pretty and we are so excited to have her here! I cannot belive how much we love her and how much she changes our life for the better!
Sunday night we went to the hospital, worried about high blood pressure. They monitored the baby and I for about 4-5 hours. My blood pressure went down then shot back up so they decided we would probably have to deliver in the morning because of the pre-eclampsia I kept being tested for, for the last 3 weeks. So at 8 am the next morning we took off to the hospital and was monitored for about 20 minutes when they decided they needed to induce me asap. After they were able to rupture my water, the plan was to put me on patosin to start the contractions but within 10 min of my water rupturing the contractions came on full just a minute apart. At about 6pm I was ready for my epidural. Within an hour I have dialated another 3 cm, and within about another hour-hour and a half I was fully dialted and ready to have this baby! Everything went great, still a little sore and defintetly tired but doing good! Thanks to everyone that called or wrote, or even thought about us! I'm sure I will be keeping the blog updated alot more now that I have something to write about :)
