whoops also i love parenthesis you ll see this story starts back in may i attended a mother s day charity brunch and won the expectant mother raffle package it included a few onesies a couple of those decorated burp cloths that are cute but i don t really get a carseat cover and a hypnobirthing course at that point all i knew about hypnobirthing was that my coworker had done a similar program with her births she had such a positive empowering view of birth even after two long difficult deliveries of her own that i was excited to learn more ryan and i started attending the classes and we were hooked total game changer did you know people who are allergic to anesthesia have used hypnotherapy to get through crazy surgeries i m talking slicing and dicing hammer and chisel type surgeries incredible ryan and i started practicing relaxation methods that would help during the delivery looking back i wish we had practiced more diligently but the little we did helped us immensely meanwhile i began having doubts about the midwife i had been seeing when i asked more details about the logistics of the actual delivery she started throwing around some interesting stats more than half of her patients were induced fifty percent of her deliveries ended with episiotomies because of sudden drops in heart rate i m not an expert but those numbers sounded high she assured me that she would only induce me if my water broke before going into labor which doesn t happen often surely it wouldn t happen to me but ryan told me to go with my gut so at 35 weeks pregnant we switched to a new doctor fast forward a few weeks and what do you know my water broke at 2 00 on a sunday morning my gut is so smart sometimes we were so excited free pass out of teaching sunbeams and sunday school no correlation meeting oh and right we were gonna have a baby plenty to be excited about i started having contractions but they were pretty random three minutes then seven then twelve then two i relaxed in bed while ryan packed half our house to go to the hospital we waited until 6 to start calling around first the doctor who said we could hang out at home until the contractions started coming more regularly then our parents who said get thee to a hospital are you sure you don t have to leave right now and finally the missionaries who said woohoo we ll teach your classes then we hunkered down and started watching movies there was stardust then nacho libre with ryan faithfully timing the contractions which were coming every 4 8 minutes on his phone by around 1 p m we were getting a steady stream of texts from family that either said so and so said that at such and such hospital you have to be admitted x number of hours after your water breaks so what are you waiting for or so excited can t wait love you or both dr peterson our ob called to check in on us and also to see if she could teach her primary class or if i would be having a baby then and we decided to meet up with her after church at her office seriously how nice was that to open up shop just for us i love that woman she checked me a little after 4 and i was dilated to a 4 no fever no infection but also not much progress we decided to head back home and prepare for an early morning delivery on the way home from her office my contractions started coming every 5 minutes or so we stopped at my mom s house and had dinner the contractions started coming every 4 minutes or so we drove back to katy and straight to the hospital by then the contractions were every 3 minutes i was so excited he was finally coming but when they checked me i was only dilated to a 5 at that rate it d be another 7 or 8 hours before we d have our little boy which was fine i thought up until that point i was able to relax and the contractions had been fine tight but not painful soon after we checked into the hospital i started to feel some pretty intense pain in my lower back i tried to use the hypnobirthing techniques to relax but i was having trouble focusing after only a few contractions like that i decided i couldn t handle that kind of pressure for 7 or 8 more hours so i told ryan to get that anesthesiologist in there pronto while we were waiting they said it would take him 30 minutes to arrive i couldn t shake this overwhelming urge to go to the bathroom i absolutely had to go in my mind if i could just go to the bathroom all this pressure would be gone and then there would be room for the baby to come i m really good with human anatomy if you couldn t tell i was all ready to go through with my plan when the nurse came in she pretty much had to pry me from the bathroom and drag me to the bed where we discovered i had somehow gone from a 5 to a 10 within the half hour i was immediately relieved mentally and physically you mean i don t have to do that for another 8 hours i was back in control we sent the anesthesiologist away called the doctor and then nurses started streaming in ryan was such a champ he kept telling me how good i was doing how much he loved me how proud he was of me made me feel like i could birth a buffalo i felt so good but yes a baby would be better the pushing began and the pressure from before was gone i just kept visualizing our sweet boy in our arms i can t say how long i pushed for everything seemed to happen so fast to me but in retrospect it must have been awhile because he wasn t born until 9 50 that night i just remember the room being very quiet with us chatting a bit in between pushes at one point they had me feel the tip of his head that was poking out it was like a warm wet nerf ball super soft and super strange with my last push dr peterson helped to pull him out with her hand according to ryan it looked like his head was being crushed like a sponge and where was his brain but he didn t say anything because how do you word that without making the lady on the bed freak out excuse me but did you just deflate my son s head like a balloon plus it all happened so fast everything was suddenly perfect one moment he was just the tip of a nerf ball and the next he was our son in our arms red skin and wide eyes this little life that we created we were in awe of it all ryan cut the cord which has produced a beautiful belly button i might add and not long after my mom came in to meet him and take the photo above the next day we settled on his name beau ryan tingey fits him perfectly the way he fits us 11 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday september 12 2011 it s a beau if we re not facebook friends why aren t we then you may not know that the belly from my last post became the baby boy of this post two months and two days ago to be exact we tried our hardest to get him to hold out til 7 11 11 but he wouldn t have it and came a few hours short so much and so little has happened in the last two months so much he came he cried he rolled he smiled and so little we feed him we put him to sleep we clean his dirties over and over that i don t know where to begin but here s a start beau loves techno ryan s brother made a few songs on garage band before leaving on his mission miss you drew and only bouncing can rival the calming powers of those electric rhythms beau has peed on us about 23 times he looks so innocent in his newborn photos but 5 of those times happened during that photo shoot when mother goose retires ryan would make an excellent replacement the impromptu rhymes he sings to get beau to calm down at night are pretty epic almost as good as megan s throw throw throw your beau rendition beau sees dead people he ll be looking right at you and then his gaze will turn to just above your right shoulder and change into a look of horror this makes night feedings particularly spooky i almost can t handle how sweet this little guy can be when he curls up and falls asleep on your chest it s over nothing sweeter except for maybe when he sighs in his sleep in your arms melt my heart just one thing though what s he doing in your arms give him back already anyway like i said just a start up until now the big battle has been beau vs the blog and it s pretty obvious who won out there but seeing as how beau s got grandparents who live a gazillion miles away i don t think i m allowed to keep all this cuteness to myself anymore consider yourself warned 6 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday may 24 2011 and the payoff thank you for all the comments we re slowly making some ground here

great bribe if you re still stopping by here every so often it s most likely in the hopes that i ve either a posted a pregnant picture or b written something riveting about our lives meanwhile i m busy trying to figure out babyland and what stroller is lightest whether or not a travel system is necessary if crib bumpers are deadly or just cute and what brand of everything is the best so i m proposing a bargain for every comment you leave that includes a tried and true by you baby product recommendation or stay away from ation i will post either a belly photo an ultrasound photo or an anecdote from our recent lives and let me tell you we ve been exciting lately i will also accept life changing cannot live without baby book recommendations baby name recommendations but only the awesome ones will count and other general tips tricks that have made your children brilliant and you fabulous you might think my proposal s pretty selfish that i will get far more out of your recommendations than you will out of seeing my 33 week baby bump you obviously haven t seen me pregnant yet thanksinadvance weneedallthehelpwecanget 22 comments email this blogthis share to x share to
