All done

Rowan was born at 2:41 am pst. the delivery went well. Rowan is great. I haven't really slept in 30 hours. Will post more later.

It is GO time! :)

Little Rowan has an opening 10cm wide and he is about to make the final plunge. Pics soon!

Almost GO time

Cherokee just had her cervix checked, 8-9 cm dilated! His head is high and has a little ways to move down before the main event.

Heartbeat

I am guessing they don't want me posting this information. It does contain internal IP address information and the hospital blocked my access to the blog site I am using now. If they really didn't want me doing this they would have purchased an application firewall until then I will keep on posting :)

Nurse change

Cherokee is still sleeping, they recently changed nurses. It's awesome we have our own nurse assigned to us.

Getting upto speed

Cherokee and I checked into the hospital at 9:00 am this morning. She was submitted into triage and was 1.5 centimeters dilated. She was given oxytosin at 11 am and has slowly been progressing since. At 6:30 pm we had a epidural inserted because the contractions were causing serious pain.


Cherokee's water (Rowan's apartment) was pierced at about 8:00 and a internal contraction monitor is now in place to get a better understanding of contraction pressure and delivery progress.
Cherokee went to sleep about 20 minutes ago and is trying to get some rest.
