Went into my doctor Monday and got a my cervix checked. I was 1.5, Tuesday had cramping, got worse Wednesday and woke up in bad pain Thursday. Timed my contractions and they where between 4-7 minutes. By time I got to the hospital I was already 4cm. Water broke at 6cm and I got the epidural at 7cm. Pushed for 2 hours and John David was born at 11:17pm on December 17th 7 pounds 7 ounces 20 inches long.
