Today is the big day where we get to meet this baby and see if baby is a boy or a girl!
6:15 am---checked into hospital, got my iv put in (took 3 painful tries)
7:10 am---Dr Brandes attempted to break my water. Didn't get the first we wanted but a bit of fluid. Chad and I walked around to see if we could get the bag of waters to open more.
8:00 am--- Started an iv of pitocin and got my epidural
9:30 am---Legs and toes are numb. Nurse just checked me and I'm at 8cm! Plus I'm leaking tons of fluid and the monitor is showing I'm having tons of consistent contractions. Baby's heartrate is also going strong at 133bpm.
10:00 am--- 9 cm! Nurse thinks heartrate is showing head may be starting to become low and compressed in the birthing canal.
10:40 am---10 cm and they can see the head. The nurses call for Dr. B and say "tell her to hurry". Chad says he is going to pee quick before we start pushing. I laugh and the nurse says "don't laugh".
10:42 am--- Dr B walks in and a nurse yells at Chad to "get out here or you will miss it". He comes running, I
mix cry/laugh at him and baby comes sliding out. No pushes at all!
