Saying Goodbye to Jacob - December 2


The contractions started getting really bad about 1:00 am. I couldn't remember the breathing exercises to help control the pain since it had been 7 years since my last labor. And, we weren't suppose to start class until January. But, we made it to 1:50 am. That's when the pain was excruciating. Jacob was born at 1:55 am with a heartbeat. It was the most peaceful experience of my life! He didn't cry or open his eyes but he was alive! We were able to hold him and sing to him. He had all his little fingers and toes. He had Stephen's nose and chin! He was precious. He lived for an hour before going up to heaven. Jacob Aaron weighted 10.6 oz and was 12 1/4 inches long.
