AFTER 5 &1/2 short hours of labor and half an hour of pushing our daughter is here one day past her due date!
Annaleigh Ivy was born 8/3/15 6 lb 14 oz 18.5 inches long @ 8:31pm
I had originally planned a natural birth so I labored at home. Called my doula but was in too much pain and I was afraid of making the ride in any worse shape so we all went to hospital at 5:30pm( 5-6cm dilated). I received an epidural when I was fully dilated (I was really hoping for a nap lol) I didn't know it at the time. He put epi in my back I laid down, he checked and said "oh! Well its time to push!" I almost cried?!!! It was an incredible, pleasant experience and I only have three stitches and this is our first child!!! I am truly blessed and still can't believe she's here!!! I couldn't believe I was holding my baby so soon. But that labor was rough, but so worth it.
