Ryler Darel Moulton is Here!!!

Yep you heard right!!! Ryler Darel Moulton graced his presence on June 28th 2011 @ 10:08am. He was 8lbs 14oz 21 inches long. I won't go into much detail but I had my appointment on June 23 and I was dilated to a 3 and 25% effaced so the doctor said that he could come within the next week to two weeks. So we were getting closer to meet our little guy I had been having contractions on and off for almost a month so I was ready. Then friday June 24th we went in to labor and delivery with contractions so they hooked me up to the monitors to watch the contractions and make sure that he was ok. We were there for 4 hours watching my contractions I was now dilated to a 4 and 75% effaced but they weren't strong enough to keep me so they sent me home. Then Sunday we went in for the same thing I was dilated to a 5 and 75% effaced but once again they were not strong enough to keep me. So we went home and waited through these contractions until they were strong enough to do something. So we told my parents and his parents what had been happening dad told Truxton to be ready in case my water would happen to break he didn't want me to be very far from him in case it would happen anytime soon. So his mom offered to take Bridgette for the week to relieve some of the stress so that we could relax and wait for him to make his appearance. So she came and got her on Monday June 27th around 2pm and we hung out with her till 5pm cause Steven had to be back for something and Truxton had rehearsal. So they left and Truxton wanted me to go to rehearsal with him so that he could be with me in case something happened he didn't want me to be alone. So we went to rehearsal of "See how they run" at the Old lyric theater so we went and had a blast!! Well at least I did. I got to see him do what he loves and be with him while he does it I wish that I could do it more often. So rehearsal ended and our friends came to the lyric and asked us if we would like to come to their house and play games and of course we said yes. So we headed over there it was about 11:30pm we played Cities and Knights after we finished the game and I realized I was hungry so everybody hopped in the car and we made a run to McDonald's. Once we got back we decided to watch a show while we ate then we would play another game within 15 mins after I ate I had a huge sharp pain on my left side but I didn't think anything about it I thought it would go away so I waited about a 30mins before I thought I should mention something to Truxton so he gave me the look of  I hope we don't get sent home again and I agreed with him. We went in around 1:30am but didn't get seen until 2:00am by then they checked me and I was dilated to a 6 and 80% effaced so they said we are going to keep you they hooked me up to the IV and we were ready to go. We couldn't have been happier to not have been sent home again. It was what felt like a long process they hooked me up to pitocin around 5:00am by then I had already had my epidural so after the pitocin everything took off by 9:00am I was pushing at 10:08am we had our baby boy!! They called in a NICU nurse cause he was considered pre-term at 36 weeks so she checked him and she said he was not pre-term his lungs were good, his weight was good. They think that we might have got the due dates wrong. We had some really great nurses and wonderful staff, I was sad to leave. The second day we were there he was diagnosed with Jaundice so they had us stay an extra day to watch him he didn't get much better when we left so we had to take the bili bed home he was on it for about a week. That was the hardest longest week of my life we couldn't hold him unless we were feeding him and taking him over to the lab everyday. He was able to be out of the bed on Tuesday!! We couldn't be happier to have him home with us and out of that bed..
