Baby update


Well, here I am Aug 19, 2010, 5:21 in the morning listening to my little boys heart beat in his mommies tummy.  at approximately 1:30ish Dani's water broke so we called the hospital and they told us to come in to make sure that it was just that.  We went in and had some tests done to make sure that it was her water breaking not anything else and check to see if she was having any contractions...sure enough both tests came out positive so they told us that we would be staying (we were emitted) and Dani was hooked up to an IV because she tested positive for strep b(something that can be Harmful to Tanner. The IV is suppose to help lower the risk of anything passing to Tanner during the Labor.


Dani just might kill me for putting this on here, but all well.


Leslie is our nurse right at the moment and her tech is Kamille, but soon at six we will be having a shift change and getting a new crew of nurses in.

At this point in time Dani's mom is driving down here to be with us during this time, and at the same time Dani's Contractions have sped up to about every three minutes and have been pretty consistent in strength and timing.  She is a trooper, all women who have baby's are amazing. that's a lot of pain you go through.  I am especially grateful for my wife and all she does for me. She is AMAZING!!!! and I can't wait to be a parent with her.

For most of you who don't know we are having a BOY!!! and we are naming him Tanner Blake Ipson.

What a Journey it has been over the last nine months.  First we start out by going to the ER because of the pain that Dani went through and come to find out not only were we then reaffirmed that she was pregnant but the pain was from a cyst.  we had thought from the beginning that it may have been a tubal pregnancy but thankfully it was not.  but now we are just getting through next the rough part of the actual labor.

I'll post more later when more news comes.
