May 28, 2009








Baby McCoy Stacy Sortor made it into this world loud on clear on May 28th , 2009! He came one month early, but was completely healthy at 6 lbs. 3oz. and 19 inch. long. I will tell you one thing i would love to go through the labor process rather than the pregnancy process i was not one who liked being pregnant at all but the reward is unexplainable! Thinking of that night at 12:30 was when i started to contract, i thought it was false labor and woke up to my husband just coming home from fishing with a 8 lb. fish in hand and asking me to take pictures for him. I told him i was hurting and think they might be contractions, but i should be fine and went ahead and took pictures pausing every so often in minor pain. Then as the night progressed my contractions we not getting any better, but progressing every 2 minutes and lasting 45 seconds. So at 3:00 a.m. Travis finally convinced me to go to the hospital and at least get checked out. So I got dressed just knowing I would be coming home shortly not packing the rest of my hospital bag (i wasn't even going to take it but Trav insisted) and headed to the hospital. When we arrived we waited and i was only dilated to a 1 but effaced 80% so they said we watch you for an hour and see what happens. I was in lots of pain by this time and it was 2 hours later they checked me and noticed I was progressing and not due for another month. So my doctor comes in after a few hours of waiting and hooked up to the machines and he checks me and says my blood pressure is way to high that they are going to keep me. Then I asked him if that's good or bad and he said he was not worried about the baby. Travis then asked him if the baby was coming today and he said yes he sure is, My heart dropped to the ground as I still had two days of work left and my baby shower to go in a few days. So needless to say he came that afternoon at 3:53 p.m. on Thursday the 28th of May. Everything went well and we were released on Saturday one hour before I had my baby shower and yes I went (a little drugged and overwhelmed) but I was there.
