Lincoln James Fryer was born at 2:40 AM MST on May 3rd, 2008.
He weighed 7 pounds 3 ounces and was 18.5 inches long.
On Friday May 2nd we sat down to watch a movie at about 7:30pm. Nicole had been feeling some contractions here and there, but around 8:30 they started to hit really hard. We already had a couple false-alarms, so we were a little cautious. The contractions were definitely more intense and we just knew that it was time. We packed a few last minute items and jumped into the car. Although we raced up to the American Fork Hospital, it still was the longest drive ever! We arrived at about 9:30pm.
It didn't take long for the nurses to know that this was it. After initial evaluation, they checked us into Labor and brought us to our own room. Initial labor was quite difficult, but after the epidural, easy sailing! At about 1:30am the midwife said that she was fully dialated and ready to go! After 50 minutes of pushing, Lincoln was born at 2:40am.

We decided that the epidural was a life saver.
