I’m in no way complaining 
It is an awfully comfortable couch, RIGHT! LOL! So all through the night Tracy remained absolutely 0cm dialated. Her actual water just broke at 9:20AM MST and they are going to start her on picotin.
It’s not an “emergency” as i’ve talked to them about, or he’d be here via C-section. They want him to come naturally if at all possible.
So far it looks like we’re going to have him TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go Aiden!!!!!
This website was setup by Aiden's Dad to document Aiden's journey when we learned of his Congenital Heart Defect (CHD) at 20 weeks prenatally.
On October 23rd at 8:02 PM MST our Aiden passed away from that Congenital Heart Defect (CHD) ... and you may wonder, what is a CHD if you've came across this page from a friend or possibly from Google searching because your new baby has been diagnosed with a CHD and like me, you're scared and on Google, something they told you not to. I'm sorry my story doesn't seem initially to have a happy ending, but it does. Many born with CHD not just survive, they THRIVE! And for some, actully the last very rough CDC estimate was 5,600 children die a year (an average within the last few years) from Congenital Heart Defects.
Every year 40,000 families face this same reality: their child has a heart defect. My family knows that hearing “Your child has a heart problem” completely changes a family forever, there are many teary nights, many of us plead with God – let it be us, not them. We sit and await surgery day with high expectations and the greatest feeling of fear we will ever have. 1 family out of 10 will be sent home with a book, “How to deal with grief” instead of taking their child home.
My wife Tracy and I have founded an organization to support CHD Awareness as well as those that have lost a child due to Congenital Heart Defects called Aiden's Angels. Look back for a link to Aiden's Angel's.

Checking in to see how things are coming along! Nothing like a long induction…. lol Whatever it takes, right??
Hang in there~
My husband would be so jealous of your comfortable plastic couch. He got to stay awake with me the whole time. Now that we are in PICU, there is a great window bench we could use anytime…no couch, chair, or anything.
I can’t wait to see the update later tonight. I hope I am still awake!
