Jack Rory McCann





We are so excited for our new addition to our family. On Thursday July 8 we were playing at the lake having a great time. When I started feeling weird and I knew something wasn't right. Alex had been telling me for days before that I really need
to get my bag ready, did I? no!!! So Alex and I left from the lake and drove straight to the hospital. I was contracting every 3-5 minutes. When we got to the hospital and got hooked up to all the monitors the contractions of course slowed down. I was dilated to a 3 and 60% effaced. So the nurse said I had to walk for 2 hours. So I walked from 10:30 to 12:30 contracting like crazy. I had to make some progress in order to stay. I of course made no progress and the nurse was sending me home. But before she sent me on my way she called the doc to let him know what was going on. I love my doctor because he told her I was to stay!! So happy for me. This was it. So I was up all night trying to have this baby. At 3:36 pm he finally made is grand appreance. He was a big boy for me. I had a hard time pushing his shoulders out. But he is here and we love him. So thankful for a healthy baby boy.
