❤ SHE'S HERE ❤

I was due on 12.4 & had been having Braxton-Hicks for about 2weeks. To get things rolling I tried EVERY Jumpstart method in the book for 2weeks & she still didn't buldge. At my last appointment, my dr. scheduled my induction for 12.12.

I went in about 11a.m they started right away with trying to get me thinned & dilated  (I was only 2cm & 50%). Gave me 1 mesophyl(??) To help thin out & would give another every 4hrs, but I started contracting too often. The next thing they tried was oxytocin & my contractions were unbearable!!!! They became 1-4 mins apart & were very strong. Because the baby's heartbeat kept dropping, they wouldn't allow me to help ease pain naturally.

After sooo many hours of not progressing past 5cm, the doctor asked how big they said my baby was expected to be - 10lbs. She didn't believe us so got the results herself & then knew. She said the baby was way too big to come down & we were starting to prepare for c-section right after...  I 2AS TERRIFIED! My bf was by my side the whol4e time keeping me calm.

At 7:19 p.m on 12.13.14 out came our princess Brooklyn Michelle weighing 8:15lbs *23in We couldn't be more happier! ♡

@momytobe1215 awe, good luck! I wish I had good things to say, but I have been in the worse pain of my life. & it seems like as the days go past, it only gets worse. Between the pain & the struggle to breastfeed I have been crying nonstop.
