Birth at 35 + 4

Sarah
Well Friday after work at about 5 pm my water broke at home, no contractions. We went to L & D and was admitted to be induced. I still wasn't having any contractions but did have a headache so they gave me something in my iv that made me super sleepy. About 1 am I woke up with some contractions but still at 0, I ended up getting the epidural which was my plan and went back to sleep. At 3am they checked me and I had progressed to a 3, I then went back to sleep until 5am when they woke me up to check me and found I was fully dilated and ready to push! It took two pushes and she was out, no pain whatsoever. Altogether not what I was expecting, but I'll take it! She's perfect.
