Jack Oliver is here!!

Yes, I am finally posting :) We are all home and doing well! (except for the insane back pain and below but won't get into too much of that because baby details are more fun!) Just copied and pasted from LIF...

Not so eventful, lol, at least from all the birth stories I've read, mine's pretty average.

Water Broke at 6:20 am on 11/5, wasn't gushing but I knew it was it when I just couldn't stop leaking. Went straight to the hospital since I have the Group B Strep.

Checked in, started Pitocin around 10:30 since I was still only 1cm. Around 1pm contractions became intense and 3 minutes apart. I have 3 herniated discs in my back, and I am almost certain if I didn't have that I could have lasted without the use of Nubain, I thought I could make it to the epidural.

Got epidural around 3pm, and was able to relax and was only 5cm at that point. I napped, and they let me have an ice pop. Around 7pm, they checked and I was still only 5, and all I felt was pressure.

At about 8:30, I felt this urge to poop, so they checked, and I was 9cm. Not even a half an hour goes by, and I really felt the urge, I was 10.

I started to push at 9pm on the dot. I got sick in the middle of a push, and the nurses were so good to me about it. They gave me some oxygen too so that I wouldn't pass out. I really felt with every 3rd push I had to do my head was going to explode.

At about 9:30pm, Jack Oliver came right out. He looked like a 10 pound baby, but only weighed in at 7lbs 11Oz, 20 inches long. He cries like a wookie - not kidding, he whimpers! It's so cute! But wow, I couldn't believe that I went through this! I will say labor wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be, however, I am currently sitting here in pain, so now I will post some pics and lay down while my husband takes care of a few things.

Oh, and the hospital was wonderful (Southwest General here in Middleburg Heights, Ohio) - every single nurse and doctor on that day was an absolute delight with help.




it says 'I was told I am a Ranger Fan' because he needs to know his roots :)
