My water just broke!!!

It was approximately 6:45 AM on Friday, March 8th. This is the date that I had planned in my head to have you and when I went to the dr they couldn't do it until the 13th because my dr was going to be out of town and I was a day shy of 39 weeks at that point. The only way I would be able to have you on this perfect day would be if it was in God's plan. Well it was!! I had a feeling when I went to the doctor earlier that week and saw my friend Ally (Dr. Jones). I grew up with her and was a little too modest to have her be my OBGYN but at the same time would love for her to be the one who delivered you. She told me that she would be on call all weekend in case I go into labor and I just had this "feeling" that we would be seeing her. That Friday AM, i woke up to my water breaking. I knew that is what it was because I remember it happening in a very similar way when I had your big sis. I called the doctor and they told me to come up to the hospital to meet Dr. Jones. I started having contractions on the way to the hospital and by the time we got there they were pretty bad and very painful. Big sis Chap was sooo excited. We threw on her "BIG SISTER" shirt and she held my hand while they were monitoring me and getting me ready for surgery. Although I was in a lot of pain, the excitement definitely outweighed the discomfort. Dr. Jones had them give me something to delay my contractions and help subside the pain until I could have my c-section. Your grandparents and uncle were all there waiting to meet you. It was a beautiful and amazing day...one of the best days of my life.
