labor story

The hospital called us at 2:00am to come in and get induced! I called my dad and he came over and slept here with the kids so we didn't have to wake them up and bring them somewhere. by the time we got to the hospital and they put my iv in it was exactly 3:00 am. i was naturally already dilated to a 3 and having some what regular contractions so we were all hopeful it would be a quick labor. so they started my potocin or however you spell it. and the contractions started coming on harder and stronger. after an hour of being there the Dr broke my water. I wanted to try to take the contractions as long as i possibly could cause i was dreading getting my epidural! i was so nervous to get it cause the last time i got it it hurt so freaking bad!! it didn't hurt with the first 2 but the last one did!! so i waited till i was a 6 and then asked for it cause once i hit a 6 i go stinking fast after that. when he started to give me the epidural i felt a shock and my leg and butt started to jump. hahaha i cant really explain it. so he tried again. once he put it in right i started to feel sooooo light headed and nauseous and i said i was going to pass out! well everyone that knows me knows i can be dramatic but i have proof! hahaha i seriously passed out! well i guess i did cause i woke up laying down with oxygen on me. apparently Jeff took pictures! Jeff said i was out for a few minutes! after that i was OK i was just really drugged up. i didn't like the feeling so i said to lower my epidural medicine. next thing i knew i was in the worst pain of my life yelling at them to turn my epidural medicine back up!! hahaha see i can be dramatic! anyways at 9:30 I gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby girl. I was in labor for a total of 6  1/2 hours and i only pushed 3 times, not too bad. Here are just a few pictures. my wonderful sister Heather took pictures of my beautiful baby girl when she was only 4 days old! I'll post those in the next day or so.
