Introducing.......

We would like to introduce our newest member of our family, Fletcher Robert Brough. He made quite an entrance Tuesday morning weighing in at a whopping 8 lbs. 4 oz. and 21 inches long. We made it to the hospital Tuesday morning @ 6 am. They got me hooked up to the monitors where it was showing that I was have regular contractions when the checked I was at a 3. I finally got hooked up to the drip around 7. My doctor came in just before nine to see how I was doing and he said I needed to get into a lot more pain. My nurse told him that the baby was right there and if we were going to deliver him by early afternoon he had better break my water. Soooo they broke my water about 9:00 am. I honestly have never had contractions like that with any of my other babies. Finally at about 9:35 am I told Ben I needed the epidural. I wanted to punch the lady giving me the epidural. She was sooooo sllllooooowwww and would not stop talking. My nurse told her we needed to accelerate this and to give me the medicine to make it work faster. As soon as she was finished and I was laying back down I felt the need to push. They were panicking a little to get everything set up and get my doctor back to the hospital. I went from a 5 to a 10 in a matter of maybe 15 minutes. My doctor made me wait to push(yeah right!!!) until my epidural had kicked in a little. Finally, I was given the okay and with the edge taken off our new baby boy was born @ 10:12 am. We were all a little in shock to say the least. Ben didn't get a chance to get any camera's ready for the birth and we barely had our doctor there. It was amazing. I will tell you my epidural worked great for the 2 hours following the birth. The nurses nicknamed him bear because of his big hands and hairy little body. It was amazing. Fletcher is so perfect. He looks a lot like Jarrett in his eyes and McGregor through his mouth. He is dark like Jarrett and Isabelle. So far he is so mellow. The naming process has proven to be difficult for Ben and I this time, but Fletcher was born on Ben's uncle Terrell's birthday and he is an amazing person. So we decided to stick with naming our boys last names and gave our newest member Terrell's last name. If Fletcher is half the person Terrell is he will be an amazing person. Then Robert is Ben's Grandpa Brough's name and my Grandpa Losee's name. So that is the first entry of our little Fletcher. Mommy and Fletcher are doing great. It is amazing to have a child and love that child so much right from the start. I could stare at him all day. Ben, Jarrett, Isabelle, and McGregor are doing well also. McGregor is adjusting fairly well and he loves his new brother. We were a little worried about him. We are all happy and loving our new baby. Thanks to everyone who helped and has given your support. We love you all.
