Sorry for the late update!
To start with the important stuff- Boy! 8lbs 5oz!! Due date was 8/25, c section was scheduled for 8/22. Christopher Tyler (we think....) I knew I wasn't gonna make it....
I was super crampy overnight but wasn't sure if it was real labor since I'm only 37 weeks 4 days. This morning I got up and noticed the combo of cramps and Braxton hicks (ha!) were taking my breath away. Then I got up to go the bathroom and there was blood. I called my doc and they told me to go to Triage. Called DH who happened to be heading back for his laptop and he said he'd take me. I was just gonna pack B up and go over myself.
Got here and they did a check. I was 1cm dilated but my contractions were every 5 mins. They called my doc and told me today is the day. My doc happened to be on call so yay! Then they asked me about names- annnnnnd I started crying. We totally didn't have any picked out. Oops!
At 10am they took me upstairs. Then they told me they were like taking me back for my CS. Holy smokes super fast! At 10:30am- baby!
I swear just last night I was saying "this baby totally isn't coming out anytime soon". Wrong!! I wonder how giant he would've been if he waited until 8/22.
