Parker Keith


He's here!
Parker Keith Davenport
8 lbs, 12 oz
20 1/2 inches
2:07 am, Thursday, March 7
 
The basics:
Contractions started about 10:30 Tuesday night
10 min apart for an hour, then 3-5 min apart for another hour
Called the midwife to give her a heads up a little after midnight
Right after the call, they started coming every 1 min and with a fury
We left for the birth center at 1:00am and arrived at 1:30
Parker was born at 2:07am!
 
Thankful for my mom, who was home with Cosette
 
Thankful for the New Birth Company (here and here) for a wonderful birth experience!
 
Thankful for Keith who helped me through
