My 2nd Successful VBAC!!

I was due November 1st. I went in at 8am. Nurse and doctor checked me and I was already 5cm with a bulging water bag and soft cervix. My doctor broke my water around 10:30am. Nurse started a low dose of pitocin at 11:30am I labored and by the time I asked for the epidural I was 8cm.. by the time they got the line in I was 9cm. I asked how long will it take for it to kick in the anesthesiologist said 10mins. The epi didnt kick in until maybe 20mins after I had my love. It only numb my right thigh and thats all. I did tear from my rooty to my tooty ( from periniem to my pee hole. My little man weighed in at 6lb 15oz 19in on 10/25/2014 at 3:24pm. I wanted natural and felt every bit of it my natural birth.:-)
