Hi everyone!!!Well the day has finally come and Vance has arrived.
He showed up finally on Aug 1 at 1:01 a.m. Angie went into labor on her own Sunday night but the decision had been made to induce her last week since she was approaching 42.5 weeks. So she got 2 doses of medication to induce labor at 9:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. which was enough to get things moving along. After that she labored for a few hours and I tried to help out as I could.As things progress the doc finally decided that he wanted to speed the final stages up just a bit and put in an IV drip of pitosin. The next hour or so wasn't too much fun for anyone but it did the trick. Ang only spent about 45 minutes pushing and then Vance was born. I was able to catch him as he came out and cut the cord.Vance weighs in at 7 lbs. 5 oz and is 21 inches long with a lot of very thick brown hair. I'm happy to say the both are happy and healthy.
