The story of Timothy's birth

Here is the story of Timothy's birth. Lynn started having regular contractions about 7:30pm on Saturday while coming up from a dinner date. They lasted until about 9:30pm and then stopped, so we went to bed. Lynn woke up about 3:30am with more regular contractions which stopped about 5:30am, so we went back to bed. When we woke up for church on Easter Sunday with our Easter best clothes on, the contractions came on again. And they were close together about 3-4 minutes apart. It was time to go to the hospital not to church. When checked in about 11:20am to an observation room to see if Lynn would make any progress. After much walking around and a little help from the doctor Lynn dilated to 4cms and it was time to be admitted to the birth center. The happened around 6pm. During this time we had friends visit us and keep us community (Phillip, Kristina, Mihaela, and Sundeep). At 10pm, they broke Lynn's water, our friends left, and the 10 out of 10 pain began. It was hard to watch Lynn is so much pain. Lynn requested an epadiral, but Baby Timothy was coming too fast. By 11pm the nurse check Lynn and she was fully dilated to 10cms and Lynn was ready to push. Only one problem, no doctor. The doctor was doing C-sections back to back, so they had to call in another doctor. This was very difficult for Lynn not to push because everything in her body told her to push. About 11:45pm the doctor came in and Lynn started push immediately. At 12:17am, Timothy's head popped out and daddy cut the cord. He was a beautiful 5lb, 15oz, 18inches long.
