the plan for Pyper Lynn Webb

I flew to Orlando on Saturday night---spent Sunday with Team Webb---there were plans---oh yes---we had plans.....
  • Ben drop off Milo to spend the night at friends---then other friends would take him on Monday during the day--
               but then the Monday day friends had to change the plans---so we went to plan B---other other friends....whew whew whew!
  • Call the hospital at midnight to make sure they arent busy---then go to said hospital for induction at 2 a.m.---
              but then said hospital was busy---busy busy busy (full moon and all)---so we went to plan B---wait for nurse at said hospital to call in 3-4 hours to let us know---rats rats rats
  • Wait out the time waiting for said hospital by resting----rest rest rest---gonna be a busy day the next
             but then Lyric went into labor---contract contract contract----ouch ow ow!---so we went to plan B----stay up all night timing contractions, braiding hair, rolling on exercise ball, showers, baths---distract distract distract
  • Call the hospital at 4 a.m.----rats still busy---
            but a compassionate nurse called back and said to come on in and get checked---                hope hope hope
  • nurse had compassion----:) :) :) and admitted Team Webb and team trainer ( muah) into hospital about 5:45 a.m.
            but said nurse checked Lyric---rats dagnabit rats----all that pain for nuthin----now we need another med before pitocin can work its charm :( :( :(---delay delay delay
  • 'nother nurse said lets check once more BEFORE i give you the delay delay delay drug (okay---she didnt say that---but repetition and consistency is more clever than the truth)---check check check
             but HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORAY! x2! all that pain and work during the night put Lyric to a 4 almost 5!
  • pitocin/epidural/6/water/check/9.5/wait 30 minutes--- 
but NOTHIN'! PYPER LYNN WEBB 9/12/11 2:11 pm 8 lb 5 oz 20 inches----the hope of hair! she is a beautiful little girl and we are PLEASED AS PUNCH!

                                                  lyric did so well---what a trooper!
