Jonas Chandler Thatcher. Born August 24th, 1:20 am. Weighed 8lbs 3oz. 21 inches. I woke up around 5 am Tuesday the 23rd having some contractions. Like every 20 min. Then some would be every 10 min. The funny thing was I was waiting for them to go away. I was scheduled to be induced 5 am on the 24th. I did NOT want to go into labor on my own. I was induced with Jeremiah and loved it so I wanted the same thing for this one. Anyways, I was contracting the whole day. Like 15 min apart ALL day. Just waiting for them to go away because I was going to be induced, right? We got the carpets cleaned that day & spent some time at my in laws. After dinner I took a bath & shower, contractions were every 5 min! We were on our way to the hospital. WOW I was in a lot of pain! I was 2 centimeters the day before. So I get to triage and I'm at a 7!!! 7 centimeters!!!! What was I thinking waiting all day for the contractions to go away. Of course I asked for an epidural. Ummm... yes please! Got the meds, pushed a couple of times, and he was here. It was just an eventful day. Everything is good and he is a good baby. I'm very blessed.
