We arrived at the hospital just after 6am and once we got settled in. Our doctor came in shortly after and was able to break my water at 7:10 since I was a 2-3cm. We let my body do its thing for a while and when I was checked again at 10:05, the rest of my water broke as not all of it was broke. At 11:05 we started Pitocin. I was checked again right at noon and was still at 4. Contractions were still non T bad either so I just kept on waiting. Around 1 it started to get more intense. By 2:40 I was checked again and was at 5-6 so we gave the goahead the get the anesthesiologist .. at 3:10 I sat up to get the epidural and that took about 10 minutes. When I payed down after getting it they checked me again and I was already complete! The anesthesiologist then gave me a shot to make things work even quicker. We waited until 3:30 to start pushing N hopes that the medicine would work. It took 3 contractions to get her out so at 3:36 Emmalynn Grace was born!
It has now been over two weeks and she has been a pretty good baby so far! I have a very long update on how nursing s going so I'll leave that for another post. Until the , here's our newest beauty!
