Nephew Watch!

I believe the new parents-to-be (JimTheLimey and Ames) are to busy with actually having a baby to live blog about it, so this will be the spot to find the news about JDI and K8Day's new nephew.

Amy went in this morning to be induced. Family is arriving in town for the big event and I will be escorting them around while keeping humzooers up to date.

Happy Baby Day!

Update:
I think Humzoo was already here.

We are currently waiting for these curtains to open.

10) We were told that Amy needs to nap so she doesn't get too angry later. She is doing great.

12) I just woke up from my nap and totally had a dream about Amy being in labor, lol! If my dream is any indication, she was doing great and was getting ready to push when I woke up...I was standing outside on a balcony and you (Joe) kept running outside to give updates.

16) Four centimeters means you're not even halfway ready to push yet...six more to go! Oh, and Ames has to be 100% effaced and at a +2 station. Good luck!!

19) Apparently the chart we were watching on screen was not Amy's. It belonged to the room down the hall.

21) The doctor said she us not progressing fast enough, so they are going to do a c-section. They will be taking her in about 20 mins.

22) Doctors just rushed in. I think the little guy is on his way.

26) Carrie couldn't stop by as she was so busy and had 2 patients that were infectious. She did look you guys up though and could see the little guy wasn't there yet when she left.
He should be there by now. We're looking forward to hearing the details.

43) Congrats to Ames & JimTheLimey! Oh and to YammaSue, JDI and K8Day!! Tell Ames to take it easy and allow the nursing staff to do their job--I've been where she is before. Twice.

44) Hey everybody!! Many many thanks for all the good thoughts and words of wisdom. This is the first chance I've had to get online and see all the awesome comments for myself. JDI passed along messages as they came in, but I wasn't able to read everything until now. I really appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers. We're all feeling much better now and hope to get some good pictures of our own posted up here as well. Thanks again everybody!!!

45) Good to know you're doing well, Amy -- can you lift yourself out of bed unassisted yet? How about while holding a newborn? Oh, and what about that FIRST post-delivery shower, huh?! I wanted to sit in there all dang day!! Congrats again!!!
