Katelyn Emma Bretz

On November 5th at 11:57pm Katelyn Emma Bretz joined the world. This is one of the best moments that has happened to Matt and I. We are very blessed with a precious little girl. It all started on Saturday morning of the fifth of November. I was doing the usual house cleaning and I felt some pains and I had some leakage. I called Matt at work and told him and then he told me to call the doctor to make sure. After I talked to the doctor she said to go into the hospital to have them check me out. When I got to the hospital they knew right away that my water had broke. I then was admitted into the hospital. I was not having contractions so they put me on pitocin and man did the contractions start coming! Around 4pm I was in a lot of pain so I asked to have my epidural. After the epidural I was very relaxed and was hanging out with Matt, my mom and dad until 10pm. Then I was fully dilated and I started pushing. I pushed for two hours and at 11:57pm Katelyn was born. She is perfect and we love her so much! She weighed 6 pounds 15 ounces and was 20 1/2 inches long. The first week has been pretty good. We are all doing well and sleeping as much as possible.
