Induction Started!
The induction started that night and come Tuesday morning, my body still wasn't cooperating so they started the pitocin. Now, I would just like to mention that they had to stick me 4 times to try and get an IV, 3 times to try and get an epidural and 2 times to draw blood. I was not a happy camper. I would also like to mention that my last meal was Monday night.
We went through Tuesday expecting a baby but nothing happened. They began mentally and emotionally preparing me for a C-section. The doctor who was taking care of me decided to give me until the next morning, Wednesday the 16th, to see if my body would kick in. Finally at 2 in the morning on Wednesday, I had dilated to 5 cm and 4 hours later I was at 10. I pushed for a little over 2 hours and at 7:14 am our 9lb 3oz, 20.5 in long bundle of joy arrived.
Welcome to the world Fiona Rosemary Hull!
So, I had been in labor for more than 24 hours by the time all was said and done. Yes it was difficult, but as I look into that face, I know it was totally worth it.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!
