Sunday about 7pm, I started feeling contractions. We spent the day in Carlsbad at an art show and with the Moeller's. As we were leaving, I asked Kirk if we should just leave Kaison with his grandparents. Kirk assured me that we would be okay and Kaison came home with us. At 2am, on March 23, I could no longer take the pain and we called Grandma and Grandpa Moeller to come to the rescue. They arrived 30 minutes later to our home to stay with Kaison and we were off to the hospital. Here is a timeline:
2:45 am Arrive at Palomar Hospital
3:15 am 4cm dialated 80% effaced
4am waiting eagerly for epidural from Dr. Mithell
4:30am Epidural administered
4:55am Water breaks (7cm)
5:30am Dialated 9cm
8:35am First Push
8:49am and three pushes later, Kamden arrives 7lbs 8 oz, 20.5 inches long
