Labor story!!

[ammanda]

So I went in at 9am Tuesday morning to be induced.  At 11 am the inserted my cervidil.  Left it in for 12 hours. Took it out at 11pm and all it did in those 12 hours is dilate me from 2cm to 3cm. So after that they let me have a sandwich and walk around. Doctor wanted to break my water but my cervix was too high. So at 1am Wednesday they started a low dose of pitocin.  After a couple hours she took me off and gave me morphine so I could rest. I had Contractions the whole time but apparently they weren't doing anything.  I fell asleep around 2:45 am. Napped off and on until about 5:30 am when they came in to do my blood work.  She checked me and I was still a 3. At 7:45 am my doctor came in and broke my water. Contractions got so bad 2-3 minutes apart and nd also back labor again like with my son. I got moved into my delivery room and deter walking around a bit.  She checked me at around 10 something and I Finally made it to a 4! So I got in the shower as they ran my fluids for an epidural.  I got out around 12 pm and got my epidural and started pitocin again bc right after my epidural my Contractions slowed to every 4-5 mins.  She checked me around 1 before they gave me my epidural and I was at a 5. At around 2 I was checked again and was at a 6. I was very relaxed and do not regret getting the epidural!  I started getting the urge to poop so she checked me again at 2:30 and I was at an 8. Things sped up quickly. She told me she'd come back in at 4 to check me and hope that it was time to go. Mind you for your second baby you don't have to be thinned out all the way.  Well about 3:45 I told her the urge wasn't getting better so she checked me again. Sure enough an hour later it was go time! She tried to have me do a couple practice pushes but the very first one she screamed to stop bc baby was coming. Called the doctor and the baby nurse right away. I started pushing at 4pm. Kenna Ofelia was born at 4:09pm! 9 mins of pushing and a beautiful baby girl was born. She weighed 6 lbs 6 oz and was 19.75 inches. Beautiful as ever and very much alert!  Head full of black hair (gets it from her Spanish daddy) I tore alil and got a couple stitches but me and baby are doing grea
