Camden Paul McCloy
Born March 7th, 2011 1:15 pm
8 lbs, 14.6 ounces, 20 inches
We decided to be induced on March 7th, 4 days before his due date, mainly so we knew that we would have family here to help out. I was admitted at 7:30 am, and around 8:15 am, the induction was started. I was already dilated to a 4 when I got to the hospital, and the doctor told me that if I hadn’t been induced, I most likely would have been coming in that night on my own anyways, so he was ready to come on that date. We decided to go for the epidural right away because of the fact that I was already a 4 and we didn’t want to have to wait for the anesthesiologist. Labor was pretty simple, Derek and I were actually getting bored and played Who Wants To Be a Millionaire on his i-phone right up until delivery. My total labor and delivery time was 5 hours. At 1 pm, I was checked and ready to go, and at 1:15 pm, Camden Paul McCloy joined our family. He was a big baby, weighing in at 8 lbs 14.6 ounces, and 20 inches long. He has been a very good baby, he really transitioned to sleeping at night pretty fast, and hardly ever cries. London has taken a little bit of time adjusting to sharing the attention, but she is getting better, and loves to help out with her baby brother. We love having one of each and know that we are very blessed for our beautiful children. I want to thank everyone for all of their support and love (and meals) that have been provided. We have such a wonderful ward!
