Okay, now the story of the labor and delivery:
About 4 weeks ago the OB said, "if you are dilated to a 4 I am sending you to the hospital." and "I doubt you will make it 7 more days without going into labor." Well a week went by and Rebecca went back in and she was dilated to a 4 and he put her on bed rest, not easy for mom to do, but she survived due to great neighbors. So another week went by and still no baby, and no being sent to the hospital to be induced, and mom was a little too successful on the bed rest, since there was no difference from the week before, more bed rest. Then we went to the last appointment on Wednesday morning, and he sent us over to the hospital to break my water, which they did later than they thought. After 4 hrs:54 mins:36 sec. :125 of intense labor (well the body might have thought so, but thanks to an epidural I took a nap, Aaron Jeffrey Forsgren was born at 7:42 PM, Wednesday, 17th of September, 2008, (Dad is going to have a hard time remembering all the birthdays, as Emma is the 29th, Seth 28th, and Aaron the 17th, it would be even worse if it were the 27th). He weighed 7 lbs .02 oz. and was 20 inches long. He sure is a cute little guy, and his siblings sure do love him.
