Hello!
Well the story goes like this...
FEB. 19th
8pm- arrived at the hospital for our scheduled induction at 3cm dilated
9pm- received IV antibiotics for GBS
10pm- pitocin started
11:30pm- water broken and 4cm dilated
Feb. 20th
12:10am- epidural (thank goodness!!!)
1:45am- great steady contractions but only 5-6cm dilated
3:00am- fully dilated (yeah!!)
3:10am- started to have major pressure feeling and was instructed to push
4:01am- WILLIAM WAS BORN!!! We had a scare at one point because William's shoulders got stuck and I thought that I was going to die from the pain of having him stuck half in & half out (even with my epidural!) but thankfully the dr. was able to free him with some muscle. William was a healthy 8 pounds 15.5 ounces, 22 1/4 inches and did great on his apgar score. He has lots of light brown hair and is very rosy!
Feb. 21st
12:00pm- discharged home!!!!!!
Things are going great but I have many questions so be prepared ;)!
