So, after 9 months and 13 days my wife Jo was booked in for an inducement today at our local Hospital. After a lot of false starts during the past weeks we didn’t hold out much hope for an unassisted arrival but at 11:30pm last night contractions started. By 1:30am this morning they were regular and at 2:40am Jo’s waters broke.
A quick call to the Labour ward and shortly after we’re ready to go. Jo feels the urge to push before we’re even in the car but manages to hold off through another 15 minutes of contractions while I jump pretty much every red light between home and hospital.
24 minutes after arriving on the Labour ward Kian Jonathan Pitman makes his arrival, pushed out in a single contraction and only just caught by the midwife.

I’m so proud to have a son and even prouder of my wife Jo for keeping her legs crossed for long enough to mean that I didn’t need to google ‘how to deliver a baby’.
