Thomas Quinn

We have 3 boys!  Wow!  Where do we begin on Thomas' birth story?  It was very quick.  We got the call from the hospital around 5am to come in for induction.  We arrived around 6:30 and by 7 they were starting the pictocin.  Since this was my third time being induced, my doctor told the nurse to double the meds to speed up the process.  Since they did that my nurse, Alex, stayed in the room with us most of the day.

We would watch the intensity of the contractions all day with little process and little pain.  Scott even worked on estimating the time of arrival of the baby based on contractions and how little I was dilated. They broke my water around 11am and I had my epidural around 1.  My doctor used the peanut shaped ball to help speed up dilation.  They came in to check on me because they could not see the baby's heart rate.  They checked me and it was time to push. It took 2 pushes in 4 minutes and we welcomed our third son, Thomas Quinn.  

We really could not believe it was a boy. Everyone was convinced we had a girl. Once he arrived we were in love with the tiny, cute, blonde boy.  

Welcome to the crazy Allenzotti family Thomas.







Still in shock that it's a boy





Going home - so tiny
At home snuggles
