Joe and Kendra's Baby Girl Special

Part 1 

At home, Kendra is timing her contractions, and when they get to around 4 minutes apart, they will head to the hospital. 6 1/2 minutes. Kendra is calm and says she isn't hurting terribly. Kendra is finishing her packing and they are excited to meet their new little girl. Joe and Kendra head off to drop Garrett at the Caldwells. Lauren Caldwell is helping with whatever Kendra needs. Joe, Kendra and Garrett pray together, and then they put Garrett down. Kendra, Joe, Lauren and Mrs. Caldwell head off to the hospital. At 1am, they head to the hospital. Kendra was waiting until she was sure sure she was in labor to go in.

Joe and Kendra arrive, and they walk around the hallways trying to get her to progress. Her water breaks after about an hour.  Kendra is surprised because that didn't happen last time. Kendra is breathing through contractions and Joe is helping talk her through it. Lauren says Kendra is in a lot of pain and they are praying things move along quickly. Kendra says the pains are sharp, and panting is the best technique for her now. Kendra beings to feel nauseous, and Joe and Lauren are just supporting her as she breathes. Kendra says she doesn't think she can do it and both Joe and Kendra say she can. Kendra's mom arrives back at the hospital to help her through it. Kendra's contractions get stronger and stronger, and Christina says she is in transition which means she will meet her baby soon. Kendra says the urge to push is getting close.

Part 2 

Kendra keeps saying she needs to push, and a nurse checks her and calls the doctor. Kendra is waiting for the doctor and says she doesn't want to wait. Kendra is dehydrated and is given an IV. Her family keeps reminding her to breath because she has a tendency to hold her breath when she is in pain which can lead to fainting. Her mom keeps telling her to breathe, and Kendra keeps asking what is taking the doctor so long.  The doctor is delivering another baby, and Kendra is struggling to wait.  Kendra can feel that her baby is almost here. The nurse tells her not to move.

Kendra's doctor has still not arrived, and her nurse is delivering the baby. Kendra starts pushing, and her daughter is born quickly. Addison Renee arrives, and her parents are excited. Kendra thanks Joe for being there, and Joe says he is glad her mom came when she did. Kendra agrees, and says she thought she was gonna die. The nurses weigh Addison and wrap her up to give her back to her parents. Joe holds her for the first time, and Joe notices how aware Addison is, and lauren says Garrett cried a lot more. Kendra holds her and is surprised by how big she is. Michelle has arrived, and congratulates everyone. Michelle asks what Joe's first thought was holding her- he said he was surprised how heavy she was. The grandparents take turns holding the baby, and Garrett meets his little sister.
