Delivery day

The hospital called me Sunday night and said we could come in at midnight. They started me on pitocin around 1 and broke my water at 230. Almost immediately the contractions started up hard.. i waited an hour and got my epidural. Thank goodness for that!! I was dilated to a 10 by 9 that morning. We started to push and push and push! I pushed for 3 hours. I was so exhausted. Adyn was turned slightly wrong and I was so swollen that we couldn't get him out. The NICU and high risk doctor came in and gave us our options. They ended up using the vacuum on him. They said it could only pop off 3 times. And I really didn't want a C section after all that. They told me they only had 4 min. to get him out once his head came. If they couldn't get him out in that time, they would have to break his collar bone. By this time..i was praying like crazy to help me not break down balling and safely get my baby out. The vacuum only popped off once. But my swelling was so bad they ended up having to do an episiotomy. And then i still got a 3rd degree tear on top of it. He came out a healthy boy and that's all that matters! Baby Adyn born August 8th at 12:11 P.M. 8lbs 11oz. and 20 1/2 inches long.

41 weeks

Bounce this baby out

This didn't put me into labor... but it was a fun ride!

Still no baby!

I think I'm going to be pregnant forever...My baby was measuring in his last ultrasound for July 29Th. That day came and no baby. But I still had hope because my Doc had his due date as August 1st. So I still had a few days for him to come. And I just knew I wouldn't make it till then. But to our disappointment August 1st came and still no baby!! But that night we went for another long walk and when I got home I could barely stand because I was in so much pain. Finally!! I was in labor...or so I thought. Four hours of pain and then poof, I felt fine and the pain was gone. He decided he wasn't ready. So here we wait, overdue, baby less and impatient. We want to meet our son so badly..but he is taking his sweet time:)
