Jasmine and the Baby

“JASMINE AND THE BABY”

Jasmine's big day of giving birth has finally came. It was on the 23^rd of February, 2010 when “baby lei” showed signs that she was ready for her to come out and experience life here on earth. Jasmine lost 2 pennies from Scott because of the wrong guess of baby lei's big day, but, she won a baby anyways, so it is still a win-win situation.

What's funny about Jasmine that Scott would never forget was that even though her contractions are every 3-5 minutes - around 4:00p.m, they still stopped by at Walmart, Riverton to buy some SD card and batteries for their camera before heading to the hospital. Every bump on the road made Jasmine cried because of the pain she felt from the contractions.

As they were admitted at the Inter-mountain Healthcare, Riverton, Jasmine was being checked by the nurse on call. She was 5 cm. already and they decided to let her stay at the hospital. Jasmine was given epidural which was a relief to her because she can't feel too much pain from the contractions.

All Jasmine could eat was frozen flavored ice and that's it. It was around 9:00pm, when the nurse said that Jasmine does not need to practice breathing because baby lei is crowning already. So they called Dr. Edwin England and at 9:40pm, they started the labor and delivery. Jasmine still felt the baby coming out but not with so much pain. Around 9:51pm, a beautiful sound of cry was heard in the walls of the room confirming the success of the delivery of “baby lei”. It was a joyful night for Jasmine and Scott as they embrace their growing family with love, excitement, and new beginnings.
