Leaving for Birthining Inn/ First hours of Tank's life!

We got the call to be at the hospital to be induced an hour before the scheduled arrival time since I was overdue.  We have been packed for weeks so we were thrilled to see our baby very soon!  We arrived in labor and delivery and they hooked me up to the monitors I learned that I was having contractions every 8 minutes and didn't even know.  We called our family to hear the heartbeat on the monitor to pass our time.  By 7 am I got an epidural and a little after 8 am Tank's heart rate had dipped down a couple of times.  To avoid the risk of lack of oxygen that he was getting in gestation our Dr. advised the c-section right away.  We agreed and didn't want to take any more risks.  He was born at 9:12 am, a healthy happy boy!!  We are so blessed!!
