My little brother, Nolan Everett Cole was born on Wednesday June 16th at 7:09 am. He weighed 7 pounds 15 ounces and was 21 1/4 inches long. (Mom wants to apologize for the late post...she has obviously been BUSY with 2 kids! If she isn't nursing or changing diapers, she is playing cars or watching movies with me!) Mom had her last doctors appointment on Tuesday June 15th where her doctor suggested that an induction would be the best bet since Nolan was doing well and mommy delivered me so quickly! Mommy thought that was a WONDERFUL idea, and so the induction date was set for Thursday June 17th (39 weeks).
Mommy woke up on Wednesday morning at 2:00 with contractions and timed them for about 20 minutes. They were VERY close together and lasting 45 seconds to 1 minute. She woke Daddy up and told him it was time. The doctor was paged and called Mommy back and decided it was time for them to get to the hospital right away! Auntie BT (Brittany) came over to stay at the house with me, and mom and dad were off to the hospital. They arrived about 3:15 am and immediately went to triage where mommy was given her IV. At this point contractions were about 5 minutes apart and VERY painful. We were then checked into our room and mommy "patiently" awaited an epidural. (this was about 4:00 am)
The anesthesiologist FINALLY got to mommy at about 6:30 and Nolan was here at 7:09 am!!!
