Hey FTM!! My experience was not what I expected but the outcome was beautiful. It started Thursday at 5:30 at Kendall  regionals I was scheduled to be induced I was so excited more because I was going to meet my baby but nervous because of the pain not sure if I was able to have handle it I ended up taking epidural which help me dilate  to 10 cm by 8 in the morning had my baby by 915 his weight was 8 pounds with 6 ounces measured 20 . Epidural really helped me out but the ending was so painful natural birth. but super happy to be   A first-time mom.
