the 6th on the 6th

today is october 6th, and right now i am at the hospital with george and mel in labor and delivery. they are bringing us grandchild #6! how lucky are we? i don't know about this being in the room, with my own daughter going through this. i'd rather be going through it myself! dr hoggard came in about 1:40 p.m. and broke her water... said everything looked great... left to go back to the office... then all of the sudden, the nurse was telling me to push the blue button on the wall, the one that said 'staff assistance'... so i pushed the blue button and then realized that it said 'code blue' (i was really suppose to push the red button). then all h#@^* broke loose! there were nurses flying around here like no buddy's business! they paged the doctor to get back here and prepared mel to go in for a c-section. but by the time he got back, things were going well again. the baby's heart beat had gone down to 50 when it was suppose to be up around 120, and the nurse wasn't for taking any chances ~ we love her! sooo dr hoggard is going to wait around a while and see how things are progressing before he heads back to american fork to the clinic. thank goodness for modern technology!
here he is again, they are going to put in a pressure catheder in. he checked her again and said the baby is posterior "again".
they didn't have any of this stuff back in the olden days. mel has more monitors on her than 'carters' has pills!
more update and hopefully pictures later!
