Great work, Rhi! I hope you're both doing well. I love a girl who quickly checks into SW while she's in labor to let us all know. THAT is commitment. Hehe.

Wow! This thread has grown since I left Sunday.. LOL
Thank you all so much. We just got home. I haven't had time to read through all the replies yet, but I really appreciate them!
Let's see.. So.. All night Saturday into Sunday morning I had the really strong contractions and couldn't sleep at all. I ended up calling my Doc's office, and they patched me through to the Doctor on call, who's one of my Doc's associates. He told me he'd rather not chance anything and told me to come right in and they'd see what was going on. So, we packed Delia up and headed straight there.
Got to Labor & Delivery. They sent Dan & Delia away and told them to come back in about 15-20 minutes, after they'd have time to assess me. As soon as they hooked me up to the monitors, and saw how strong the contractions were. The nurse immediately called the Doctor (on-call). He said "Get her ready!" They did the shaving, put an IV in...
Then, the Anesthesiologist came in and discussed what would happen. He saw that I was very nervous about the Spinal, so he was really nice and took extra time going over everything with me.
We got into the OR, and I had 3 people consoling me and comforting me through the Spinal, INCLUDING the Doctor.. LOL..
What's funny is they were cracking jokes the whole time...
Doctor: "Don't worry, He (The Anesthesiologist) graduated last week, and did this once on a cadaver.. It'll be perfectly fine"
Anesthesiologist: "What? I haven't graduated YET. That's next week."
LOL
The Doctor then told me "Oh, you lucked out and got me because your Doctor is hungover again.. So it's probably safer that I'll be doing your C-Section... At least he's not waiting on bail again."
They kept things very humorous to say the least. LOL.
They had Hunter out in about 10 minutes. They had to go through quite a bit of scarring, so it took them longer. They also said it was a good thing that I wasn't allowed to attempt the VBAC, because the scarring from the Ectopic I had back in 2001 was very severe, also the Uterus is very scarred, so it wouldn't have turned out well.
When they got him out--they announced "It's a GIRL!!!... With a rather large Penis!" (more humor from the docs.. LOL)
They asked me about a zillion times if I was sure that I wanted no more babies, before they tied the tubes up. But, it's finally done. They sewed me back up and sent me to recovery. Hunter got to come with me and stay.
Another thing that was very cool, was that we couldn't get a hold of HoFace (he had his phone on silent). So, the Nurses in Labor & Delivery let Delia hang out with them! A Doctor took her on rounds with her, they braided her hair, they colored. I was so impressed! They were WONDERFUL!
I'm doing alright, except for some pain. They gave me some good drugs to take home with me, as well as a prescription for more. Recovery may take a little longer because of the tubal, but he was so worth it. Coughing is not fun, but I have this brace thing around my stomach to keep the movement down a bit.
Dan left my camera on after he took pics on Sunday, so the batteries are drained. I'm charging it up right now and I'll be able to post pics a little bit later.
RedZ.. Thanks for updating everyone for me.
I'll post more in a bit, after we get all situated.

Oh Congrats! Sounds like the experience was about as good as it could have been and your doc was pretty cool. Even reading the "It's a Girl!" remark got me freaked out for a second though! Your heart must have jumped.
Take it easy and man - I can remember how coughing hurts.
Congratulations!

For the record, they were going to name the baby after me, but when they heard my real name is Dork, they declined.
Congrats Rhi, and *Hugs*
