Hayden’s Stats:
- 6 lbs 9 oz's.
- 19 ½” long
Hayden and Zenica are both doing great.
Zenica started having consistent contractions around 1:30 p.m. and they got stronger and closer together each hour. By 4:00 p.m. they were about 4-5 minutes apart and painful enough that she wanted to get to the hospital.
They held off Zenica’s labor for an hour or two since her doctor got called into a
C-section for another patient. These couple of hours were the longest so we killed time reading and watching Oregon State work over USC.
Anyway, Zen’s blood pressure was a little low, so they got that boosted up and once they increased the pitocin she progressed pretty quickly. They checked her at 9:30 and she was fully dilated, so within minutes Dr. Hall was here and after 2 ½ pushes, Hayden was born.
About 45 minutes after he was born, I went and picked up Alex (Connor was sound asleep) and she was so excited to see her new baby brother. She was so sweet with him and Zenica. When she left she was so happy, she was doing cartwheels (literally) in the hospital hallway and on the grass.
We need to give a BIG thank you to the Stacey family for watching Alex and Connor while Zenica’s parents made their way up from Utah. They were a real life saver!
We are very blessed that Hayden is healthy and I’m especially grateful Zenica is healthy.
Zen is amazing. I am blessed to have such a wonderful, beautiful wife that is an awesome mom. There’s no question that having three will challenge us, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Welcome to life and this wonderful world Hayden!
