He's here! I'm a mommy!!! Here's my story... NOW with photos added!
Original post by LIJuneBride
Our little one decided to arrive two weeks early. Jesse David was born on 4/27/05 (my mom's and dad's birthday). He was five pounds, five ounces and 19 inches long. He's small but healthy. Quick rundown of the events, all of which occurred on 4/27/05:
2PM - lost mucus plug 3:30PM - water broke 4PM - check-up with OB, he confirms water broke and says I am one cm., sends me to the hospital 6PM - arrive at hospital and they assign me to an LDR room. I am now 2-3 cm. They put me on pitocin. 8PM - epidural!!! what a difference. The right side didn't work as well as the left but still helped a lot. It really helped with the back labor. 8:30PM - Now 4cm dilated. 10:15PM - Now 9 cm dilated. Won't let me push until the doctor arrives. 10:30PM - doctor arrives and we start delivery about 10:40PM. 11PM - we meet our new son!!! Everything is good - apgar is 9.
I did need an episiotomy as my labor progressed so quickly and he was a compound presentation (his head and arm were born at the same time). All is well and we are home, happy and healthy.
ETA: Finally some photos. My personal favorite is the last one. http://share.shutterfly.com/action/share/welcome?i=EeCtXLFq3bOag&x=1&sm=1&sl=1
