I had an ultrasound scheduled for Monday the 17th at 3:30. My car broke down so I didn't get there until 4. They were supposed to check my fluid, being I was 3 days overdue. They turned me away. Well mom was not having that. I was cramping on the way there, so we went to labor and delivery. After finally doing the ultrasound and everything being fine, I was still 1 cm and they scheduled my induction for Thursday night. Then they sent me home. That was at 7:00 pm. By the time I got home at 9:30 I was contracting every 7-10 minutes. 2 hours later I was on my way to the hospital because they were 3-5 minutes apart. We got to the hospital and got me hooked up. After a couple hours they admitted me. I went from 1 to 3 within a few hours; then to 6. They gave me Newbane?? and put me in the hot tub for a few hours. Once that wore off they gave me the epidural. I progressed to 8. I slept on and off for a couple hours and they checked me again at 1:00 pm. I was 10 and ready to go! They let the epidural wear off a bit because I couldn't feel myself pushing. The contractions were horrible! But I pushed through it with my mom, sister and boyfriend by my side. Zoe Amara was born at 2:24 pm. She weighed 7 pounds 11 ounces and is 20.5 inches long. I was a baby through most of my labor but I pushed through and had a perfect, healthy baby girl!
