SPENCER MARK JENSEN
November 14, 2006
@ 1:26 a.m.
5 lbs 6 oz
17 1/2 inches







I went in to see my Midwife in the afternoon on November 13 and I was sent over to ultrasound to make sure that Spencer was still growing. They sent us from there over to Labor and Delivery because he was pretty small and it looked like his size hadn't changed for a few weeks. Jake had to get back to work and finish a few things, and of course pack a bag for me because I was not exactly prepared for the hospital stay. So, since they were not even going to start the Pitocin until the next morning we figured we were good to have him go for a while. Well...Spencer had other plans and through a series of events (that would bore everyone reading so I will leave out the details) I went quickly into active Labor the minute he left. Thanks to my cousin Katie who was on her lunch break and came to see me, I didn't have to go through the worst of it alone. My mom, Megan, Karly, and Heather got there soon after and got to see me get my epidural (my very best friend). It made the rest of the night go much smoother. Heather and my mom stayed, which turned out to be a huge help...I think they were there more to help Jake than anything!! Grandpa Mark got to wait in the waiting room for the fun part, but he got to come and help Jake give Spence his first little bath. Welcome baby Spencer!!!
