We got to the hospital at 3:00 a.m. [Yikes]
I was dilated to almost a 4 and Ready to Go!
They didn't start the pitocin until after 5:00 a.m. Hours and Hours went by and no progression. The Dr. broke my water and I dilated to a strechty 5 haha. I got the epidural. But hours and hours went by again! NO PROGRESSION! After being on pitocin for 10 hours I had reached the limit and had to be taken off. The Dr. and nurses said, "Something is wrong with the pitocin, the other inductions aren't working either!" There conclusion was no one's pioticin was working that day, it was a bad batch. Us poor women that day! The Dr. decided to put a pill inside me as a last resort to get the party started. It worked! But the epidural was done. I had Rhett 3 hours later at 7:58 p.m. NATURAL. The pain was death. All the pressure and burning and bone crushing...? haha. I seriously was like, "oh snap I'm dying!" He finally came out and I couldn't believe how much he weighed!
He was almost 9 POUNDS! OUCHY OUCHY!
8 pounds 14 ounces
21.7 inches
7:58 p.m.

Rhett Nathan Crandell
My body was dying after I had him. My whole body shook in pain
for hours! It was just so bad! But Rhett is stinkin cute that it helped a little.
The next day I felt a whole lot better! NOT totally better...but better
The sweet kiddos came to visit me! Family of 5 now!
Rylee loved trying to feed him :)
Ahh...3 kids now! Crazyness!
Ok Rhett wants to tell his version of the birth story......
Well...hehe I was swimming around in my Momma...
and I heard like a party going on outside.
I was like, "OMG!" I wanna come!
I said, "Hey Hey" to everyone and "Where's the Ice Cream?"
That's when things turned sour....everyone kept saying,
"Look at his double chin!!"
I was like,"What Gives?!"
I'm still cute...right..?
