(2 months ago) So here is another birth story. Because I like them to be recorded. You don't have to pay attention, I'll try to do some general family posts soon! Let me start with the part where I was sick for the first few months of my pregnancy... It wasn't morning sickness, though.<br />
<br />
Starting in March, I went from a cold to bronchitis. I had wheezing from a lot of mucus in my lungs and thus a wet cough and grossness to spit out after each coughing fit. I had a couple rounds of different antibiotics and daily use (or rather nightly use) of a nebulizer for my wheezing. And actually my wheezing is still lingering as a late night and early morning and allergy season thing. But in a much milder form. grateful it's basically gone after an initial 3 months of snails pace improvement.<br />
<br />
Other than that lovely experience (read sarcasm here), I had a fairly uneventful pregnancy. I gained hardly any weight the entire pregnancy (I wasn't skimping on meals snacks or desserts!). I started at 124 lbs. and weighed 136 lbs. at the end. With every other pregnancy I was within a pound or two of 150. I was riding my bike with trailer attached to pick up Liam and Owen from school, which is a 2.5 miles (round trip) 5 days a week. But I also rode my bike when I was pregnant with Caden to pick up Liam from preschool which was a 2 mile round trip. So, basically, I don't know why I gained so little.<br />
<br />
I chose a birth center this time partly because of my annoying last experience when I had Caden at the hospital and partly because I had kinda been wanting to go to a birth center since my first pregnancy and never had yet. I had a good experience for my prenatal visits and for my birth. At least as good as you can get for an unmedicated birth.<br />
<br />
Staring in September, I attended an online illustration class (SmArt School) that finished up on December 4th. The baby was due to arrive Dec. 13th, so I thought it would all work out perfectly even if he came a week early like the last two did. The class kept me very busy. Whenever I wasn't taking care of my kids needs I was making art or planning art. I loved it. Nathan was a huge support (he pushed me to take the class in the first place), he didn't complain about the state of our home (messy) or about doing dinner laundry and dishes so I could continue to work.<br />

<br />
<br />
So, now for the birth part. On Wed., Nov. 19 I had bloody show. (I had also started getting more frequent medium strength contractions several days before that.) I had been feeling for a long time (for weeks) like the baby was going to be ready to come soon. However, I was a little concerned, because I wouldn't be 37 weeks pregnant until the 22nd and I would have to go to the hospital if the baby came before then.<br />
I had my prenatal appointment on Thu., Nov. 20 and I was "a stretchy 2 or 3 cm." since the next Thursday was Thanksgiving we planned for me to come in again on Monday to see how things were going. I had contractions on and off all day Friday. I started having some pretty strong contractions that night around 8 or 9pm and they continued every 10 to 15 minutes for several hours so I called the "labor cell" for the birth center at 1am Saturday morning. I was officially 37 weeks now so I felt better about the idea of being in labor because I wouldn't have to go to the hospital. The head midwife answered the phone and listened to my explanation, then told me to try laying down and going to sleep and if that didn't make the contractions ease up then I should call back. So, I went to sleep and they went away.<br />
I had contractions all day, after I woke up on Saturday, but they were pretty wimpy and inconsistent. Sunday and Monday were also wimpy. At my appointment on Monday I was still about 3 cm. so we set an appointment for a week later. But I didn't have to wait that long!<br />
On Tuesday my contractions made a comeback and started building in intensity. My game plan was to focus on completely relaxing my body of all tension and to keep my mind peaceful and free of fear. I called Nathan mid day because I decided I needed him home to care for the boys so I could focus. I got a call from a mom friend from church asking if there was an "achievement days" activity that night (I'm in charge usually), I let her know it wasn't until next Tuesday. The whole time I was on the call I was feeling antsy. I needed to hang up before I had another contraction!<br />
As it got later in the evening, I thought we should call the midwife but was afraid to hear it was a false alarm. I was rocking and swaying, leaning on Nathan through my contractions and humming or sometimes laying down very relaxed or kneeling very still. My contractions were quite strong (and every 5-8 minutes) and I changed positions often. Finally, around 8pm, I made the call. The midwife that I liked best (I like them all though!) answered the phone and after hearing what I had to say said she would meet me at the birth center in an hour. Since we had a 40 min drive we used the extra 20 to get a babysitter.<br />
Because it was the week of Thanksgiving we were concerned about finding someone who could watch the boys for us. Our usual babysitter was out of town. We had made a couple tentative calls earlier just to check availability and both had small children and their husbands were out of town, so no good. So, we thought to ask my friend who had called earlier about the activity and lucky for us she was willing and available! She came by a few minutes later and she took them off our hands. Caden was a little worried about the situation but he calmed down and was good to go after a minute.<br />
<br />
So, we loaded ourselves in the van an headed to the birth center. My contraction spaced out a little for the car ride. We arrived just before the midwife. After she came we went in and picked one of the rooms to labor in. Nathan held or rubbed me while I labored on a ball or standing. My contractions remained slower and even became a milder intensity. I was afraid maybe this was going to turn into a false alarm. The midwife checked me and I think I was a 8 that could easily stretch to a 10. When her labor assistant arrived she checked me again (it was 10pm) and then suggested I try laying on my side for a few contractions. Holy cow! All of the sudden my contractions were really really strong, painful even! I tried to stay relaxed and I started moaning through the contractions. Two contractions laying on my left side, then two laying on my right. I was moaning and whimpering and evening crying a little. Then she checked me again and said I could push now (10:30pm). I was sooo ready to be done! So, Nate helped support on my left side. I pushed. The midwife had me put my hands just below my knees and tuck my chin to push. I remember between once between contractions foggily thinking about how I didn't want to be holding a crunch position while resting and so I let go of my legs to flop back on the pillow. I guess it looked rather abrupt because the midwife asked me if I was okay. I told I was just tired. The next contraction came and I was back up and pushing. When his head finally popped out, there was a giant gush of amniotic fluid that soaked Nathan, the midwife, and the assistant! when his head came out I honestly couldn't tell if his body had come out too or if he was still half in there! He was still half in. The midwife asked Nate if he wanted to catch the baby, but I said "No, don't move!" I needed him to keep supporting me. One more painful push and baby was out and on my chest. The cord was very loosely wrapped around his neck and was also really long. his APGAR scores were 9 and 10. After a while I pushed out the placenta and eventually we clamped the cord and then they weighed and measured him. He measured 19.5 inches long and weigh 6lbs. 9oz. (almost a pound and a half less than Liam was!) but he was just a few days shy of 3 weeks early.<br />

<br /></div>
So, after a total of 9 minutes of pushing and only 30 minutes of <i>truly</i> painful labor, I had my baby in my arms! I'm not sure exactly when the less intense laboring actually started it was too gradual to tell for certain but basically that whole day was mild and medium discomfort levels. But it really was the best I could have hoped for!<br />

So after a shower, a couple hours rest, and a final decision on his name, we left the birth center at 12:30am and took our little Finn Amos Shirley home. My friend kept the boys most of the next day, so Nate and I got to spend the day alone together with Finn.<br />

On the 13th, I flew out to Utah for my Dad's wedding. He found wonderful lady to love. I'm so glad I was able to be there in the temple as they were sealed. I met her officially, afterwards. My little sisters love her and she is really a great match for my Dad. I think they will make a happy family together.</div>

We took the long drive to Massachusetts for Christmas. We stopped midway in Richmond, VA to stay at my Aunt Missy's house. We stopped there on the way home as well. All of Nate's family were able to be there for Christmas. We went to pick out a Christmas tree together. We also went to some sort of big Children's museum. Everyone had a great time.</div>

Back in May, Nathan and I decided to buy a airline ticket for me so we could lump Nate's business trip to Denmark with a trip to Spain since it didn't cost him any extra to route his trip that way and come a week early. So we were paying for my ticket and a place to stay in Barcelona. We kept it cheap by using a website that lets you rent rooms in apartments instead of going to a hotel.</div>

We tried out a few museums. One about the city's ancient history. A smaller one full of oddities. And the Museu de Xocolata, the museum of chocolate. The museum gave the history of chocolate and a decent collection of chocolate sculptures. Our tickets were even chocolate, which we enjoyed as walked around. We ended our visit with real hot chocolate and bought some truffles and other chocolates from the shop. </div>

We saw so much, it's hard to cover it all. After five days we flew to Copenhagen. They lost our bags for a couple days, so we had to wash our clothes over night for wearing the next day. Luckily, they got my bags back to me in time for me to take them with me on my flight home. Lots and lots of bikes. I have never seen so many bikes in my life! It was awesome.

Mom and I at my wedding.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, I looked back and realized I never mention anything about my Mom having breast cancer. I think I was avoiding it and ignoring it in hopes that it would go away, but of course, it didn't. I has been about a year and a half since my Mom left us, so a lot of the details are a bit hazy and I might be slightly inaccurate. But I feel it is important for me to record it as well as I can anyway.</div>

My Mom had been diagnosed with breast cancer in fall 2010. When she told me on the phone I was walking along my route to school. I was shocked and scared for my Mom and my whole family. Eight of my siblings still lived at home, the youngest being almost 3 years old at the time. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
After much prayerful consideration, she declined chemotherapy, choosing to try alternative treatments instead. She remained positive and diligently researched alternatives. She tried to live as healthy as possible. She did fairly well for a couple years, but her tumor grew. It was easy to forget she was sick, even though we spoke of it when we talked or visited, she continued to make life seem so normal. It may have been a little more obvious to my family still living at home, since they would see her regularly go to appointments for her assorted treatments. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Also during this time, things got pretty bad financially (I'm not sure that it had much to do with my Mother's sickness) and my parents had to sell their house and move to a tiny 3 bedroom modular home they owned in Red Mesa, 11 miles away. It was a very stressful for my Mom, they had so much stuff! We visited them at their new home that summer on our move to Florida. They had settled in well enough, but a lot had to stay in storage. </div>

When ever I spoke with my Mom on the phone she would tell me about what she was doing and what she had learned. I stayed open to her ideas and trusted in her decision, as she said she and my Dad prayed and fasted often about the matter. However, as time went on she became more closed about her battle with cancer and everything associated, because of the criticism from friends and family about her choices. But she always remained positive and hopeful about her recovery. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
When we came to spend Christmas with them in 2012, we were surprised to find that my Mom's tumor was so large she would roll a hand towel up and tie it under her arm to keep it from pressing on the tumor. Her demeanor was otherwise very good. So I tried to stay positive, but I was a little scared by the state of her tumor. But she was reassuring us that she would be flying out for a new kind of treatment the week after we left. We went back home after Christmas and back to our everyday lives. Also, the treatment didn't make her feel very good. From my very limited knowledge, it was starting to sound a little like what chemo feels like (i.e. throwing up). I think she ended up needing to stay for treatment longer than expected and so my Dad flew out to be with her. Eventually she came back home. I'm a little uncertain about the timeline here. </div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Caitlin, me, and Mom (L to R), Christmas time. (the last time I saw her looking well)</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I called my Mom every so often and she began to sound more tired and out of breath. But she always was positive, so I trusted things were fine. After a time, I started getting calls from my Aunts and Uncles. They had been to see my Mom and were very worried about her refusal of conventional treatments and wanted me to talk to my parents about it. They were hoping that maybe I would get through to my parents, where they hadn't been able to. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
My Aunt Jen called and told me how my Mom was when she had visited so I could be aware of the situation. I was alarmed to hear from my Aunt about how bad my Mom had become. My perception from talking to my Mom was that she just needed an extra nap every day. I had just been ignorantly continuing on my merry way, living my life and thinking all was fairly well at home!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I called my Dad and asked him about Mom's health. He told me they were doing fine and he was positive she would get better. He told me that my Mom's body was just working the sickness out and then she would recover. So, I let it go and I told him to let me know if I should come to see her if he felt things were bad. He called me a few days later and told me to come. He admitted that Mom really wasn't doing well, she slept a lot and couldn't get up on her own anymore. He had stopped going to work and one of his guys be in charge while he was away. He had to help her to the bathroom. She now spent her days in the reclining arm chair. She even slept in the chair instead of their bed and Dad slept on the couch near her. He had been told that she didn't have very long to live. The (hospice?) nurse that was coming to give her medication now said that she had seen this before and in her experience, she thought Mom would continue to decline rapidly. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So I bought a ticket and flew out to Colorado with Caden after Jennifer and Tim's visit to our home. We were arrived Saturday and flew back late Tuesday, not very long. Nate needed to be back to work Wednesday and we didn't have a babysitter available. But I'm glad I had the time that I did.</div>

My Mom was on oxygen and her left arm had swollen from the tumor on her left side, the rest of her looked wasted away. It was hard to see her that way. Her body smelled like decay, at least around the tumor. My Dad changed her bandage every day. But the flies would plague her so she had to have a flyswatter on hand.</div>

It was also sad to see how everyone was handling the situation, my little sisters in particular. </div>

<span style="text-align: justify;">On Tuesday, Caden and I went home. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
12 days later, my Dad called me to tell me my Mom had passed away in her sleep early that morning (it was also my brother Spencer's birthday). My brother Chris had arrived the night before, in time to see her. I think my dad and she knew she was going to go and each of the kids at home had a chance to say goodbye. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
After nearly 3 years fighting breast cancer, Mom passed away at the age of 49.</div>
<br />
I flew out alone for the funeral (Caden stayed home because he really limited my ability to help out, he had wanted me to hold him most of the time). I was able to stay 5 days this time. It was a blur of seeing and spending time with family and of preparing for the funeral. Dad wanted to make her casket himself, rather than buy one. A friend from church let him use his carpentry shop and helped him to build it. He wanted to leave it unstained and let everyone write messages or draw on it as they chose.<br />

His first injury happened when he was pretending to be a ghost while they were lining up outside to go back to class. He stumbled and hit his eyebrow on the stairs. You can see it bandaged in the 'pile-up' photo 4 pictures up and in this picture it is healing. Then a couple weeks later, for this shot, Liam got caught in the crossfire of a frisbee toss at P.E.. A shiner followed a day later.</div>

Here he is! Our newest addition to the crew! Caden Gray Shirley. He was born about a week early (due date july 27) on July 18 at 4:22pm. He measured 8lb. 3oz. and 20 in. long.<br />

<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here is the birth story. If you wonder why I put these stories in, I write these down mostly for my own record, and because I like birth stories.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My pregnancy, in general, had been a little more comfortable than my previous one or two (maybe because I had been riding a bike 4 miles 5 days a week for the entire school year to take Liam to preschool). In spite of that I was still very restless. I was ready and hoping my baby would come early. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I had been having stronger (but not painful) contractions on and off for the past few days. They would come regularly (every 10 minutes) for an hour or so and then die off for anywhere between half an hour and nearly a whole day before coming back again. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tuesday night I did our weekly shopping trip at Walmart and later that night my contractions came back a little stronger and continued happening frequently through out the night (I didn't bother timing them though) but I was always able to go back to sleep if I relieved my bladder. They continued through the morning (still not painful, just very firm) while Nate got ready for work. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was a little concerned about letting him go to work because if things continued and escalated quickly (see Ronan's birth story) it would take him 20 minutes to get back from work and then we would have to take the boys to someone's house and then drive 30 minutes to the hospital and I swear you have to walk for 10 minutes just to get to the maternity ward after you park. My fear was that by the time I knew that I was in labor for sure I wouldn't necessarily have an hour to spare.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, even though I didn't really feel like I was in labor (compared to my last experience, it could have been just Braxton Hicks contractions or false labor), I decided I should call my doctor's office before Nate left for work and see what the nurse thought. I told the nurse about my contractions and explained my last birth experience and she recommended that I go to the hospital to be checked.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So Nate called in to work saying he wouldn't be coming in and we got the boys ready to go. It was nice to be able to get ready in such a laid back fashion! We took the boys to my visiting teacher's house, she had young twin girls for them to play with, then we went to the hospital. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We arrived at about 10:30 am. It was strange to just walk in to the hospital while I felt completely normal in spite of the contractions. They took me to a little room and did an internal exam (4cm dilated) and monitored my contractions for about an hour. They decided to admit me and augment my contractions with pitocin. The reason for that was actually because there were variables in the baby's heart rate during some of my contractions, so to be safe they thought it would be a good idea to have him come out that day. My nurse was a really sweet woman from the UK (I loved listening to the accent!) we later found out that she had been a midwife there, though she wasn't certified to be a midwife in the US (you'll see that this comes in handy later).<br />

<br /></div>

They started the pitocin at 11:30 am and I decided to ride out the contractions for a while and see if I could handle -or should I say if I wanted to handle- my contractions on pitocin. Mostly I didn't want to get it if I didn't really need it yet, so hopefully baby wouldn't get as much of the drugs in his little system. I went for about an hour or two. I could still handle contractions okay at that point but I knew that it was getting worse more quickly now, so I asked for the epidural. When the drugs kicked in I could still feel when my belly was hard but it didn't hurt any more. A little later my midwife checked me and broke my water; I was 5cm. I probably would have been a little upset about my progress if I had still been dealing with my contractions at that time, but I wasn't, so I had more patience. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My midwife decided to go back to the office and asked that the nurses send for her when I got to 9cm. I'm not sure of exact timing but after a few checks it seemed that I was dilating 2cm each hour. It was probably about 4pm my nurse checked and she said I was 8cm but she could stretch me to a 9 so they decided to call my midwife. They started getting set up and she checked me again 5 or 10 minutes later. The baby's head was already in the birth canal and I couldn't even tell! My nurse stayed really cool, the other nurse in the room looked a little more frazzled that the baby was coming with out the midwife there. They quickly slipped on gloves and my nurse handled the birth like a pro (which she was). The baby's head started crowning and the other nurse and Nathan both helped me sit up a bit more and hold my legs which were very numb. I was able to watch his head coming out, which was cool and very surreal! I hadn't been able to watch my babies head come out before. He was all wrapped up in his cord around his shoulders and body, which explained the variables in his heart rate. After he turned, my nurse asked me to push to get his shoulders out. So the only pushing I did was 2 pushes for his shoulders and then he was out. They placed him on my tummy and dried him off. My midwife came in as the nurse delivered the placenta! They postponed measuring and weighing him until after his first feeding. So, I got to hold him for almost an hour and a half; then I let Nathan have his turn before they came to measure him.<br />

Josh fashioned some new sparring swords from PVC pipes, pipe insulators and duct tape. It was tons of fun! They even made some mini ones for the boys to use. I recommend turning the volume down on the video, the wind in the microphone is very obnoxious.</div>

Later Kiersten and Mckenna made an awesome obstacle course from various things in the yard like the playhouse ladder/slide/swings, trampoline, Little Tikes slide, and the lower concrete wall. Almost everyone tried it out, even my Mom and I (yes, while I was 29 weeks pregnant!) tried it once. It was the funniest thing to watch everyone (teenagers, grown men, young girls) jump through hoops to try to get the quickest time. It was a fun visit, we were so glad that we took the time to go.</div>

Nathan and I planned a getaway since it was likely to be our last chance for probably a year or more. So we helped pay for Grandma Shirley's ticket so she could watch the boys for us. We celebrated Owens third birthday a few days early then left on our "babymoon".</div>

We went to Saint Augustine for three days. I picked it for the history and museums. We stayed at a nice little bed and breakfast. The breakfasts were very good. The days were not too hot yet so it was a nice time to go. It also had a pretty nice beach, though it was a bit windy the day we went.</div>

The boys were a little disappointed that there was no snow while we were there.<br />
Liam also had a bike waiting for him at home in Florida so he could ride to the preschool with me. The preschool let us leave his bike in the lobby area while he was in class so I wouldn't have to haul it around. When we got home it turned out the bike was a little small so we kept it for Owen (which made Owen happy!) and got Liam a bigger one.</div>

We arrived in Orlando late at night and picked up our rental car. We got an inexpensive hotel room with two beds, one for us, one for the boys (at least that was the idea) and a portacrib for Ronan. We had been hoping (perhaps foolishly) that we would be able to quickly find a place we liked and a minivan within a week since Nathan would be starting work then. We ended up being in the hotel for two weeks. So the boys and I ended up being holed up in the room while Nate worked. The boys were starting to get cabin fever. Luckily there was a TV in the room and kiddie pool right outside our door otherwise it could have been much worse. It was so hot and initially it smelled like a swamp to me until I got used to it. The tap water tasted like swamp too. Well finally we found our van and then our home. The boys were so happy to have a real home after a few weeks in a single room. </div>

I got to go on a field trip with some of my illustration class to New York for a week. It was amazing to meet so many artists and see so much art; it was also strange to be without my family. Nathan was amazing! He took care of the boys by himself with occasional help from friends and family when he needed to go to class. It was hard for me (and Ronan too) because I was still nursing Ronan who was just about 6 months old. </div>

We started packing up for our move to Florida for Nathan's new job with Tupperware. We put almost everything, except for some clothes and a few dishes and pans for camping out, into a Pod to be shipped across the country for us. We planned to spend a week or two with my family in Colorado before flying out of Albuquerque. Right before we left Utah we went to the Hogle Zoo with Brandon, Allyson and Katelyn; Daniel; and Kevin. </div>

We had a great time with my family. The boys had so much fun with their Aunts and Uncles. It was so nice to have a breather from all the stress of moving before it started up again. We sold our car and planned on buying a minivan when we got to Orlando as well as hunting for a home.</div>
