Introducing: Steven-Jerith Merchant!
Steven-Jerith was introduced to the world a few days early due to my health. I had began Pregnancy Induced Hypertension which is a precursor of Eclampsia.  They induced labor.

The magnesium sulfate slowed the contractions so if took  17 hours of Labor.  When he finally did come the doctor barely did make it in the room.  He thought I would be another 15 but Taz had other ideas.  No pain med ANYWHERE he came out so fast.
