Today my girlfriend Mandy was finally admitted into the hospital
and stayed! It has been a long week of contractions for her... and then a few hours in between with nothing. But today at 2 am her water broke and she was off to the hospital. Mandy was nice enough to let me hang out so I took the day off of work to learn a few things. It was quite surreal being there, and thinking this is going to be me in 2 months. YIKES! I was there for the "waiting period" and was able to see the Man
dy without drugs and the Mandy with drugs... surprisingly she was making it look like a cake walk. Thankfully though, I needed to be at work to catch a meeting when things really started happening. The epidural was wearing off... and contractions were significantly stronger than ever... But alas... she is here! And a tiny little thing with some lungs! The picture somewhat shows how tiny she is compared to Jim's hands. I really am not sure how Jim will be able to snap those little buttons on the onesies or fasten the newborn size diapers... My mother in law seems to think a small baby is out of the picture... I am not there yet...
Here are the stats:
