Had my baby!!!Labor story
So I had my beautiful babygirl on the 5th. Cinco de mayo baby. I was 2 days overdue so I went in to the dr office to schedule an induction. It was set for 4:30am Tuesday. While there, I found out I was 4 cm dilated and 70% effaced so dr stripped my membranes and said he wouldn't be surprised if I went into labor on my own. Sure enough 3 hours later I was in full blown labor. Contractions every 5 min!! I started dilating about a centimeter per hour after that. Got the epidural, but had a mild dose so I could still feel all the pressure of my daughters head and I waited till the last minute to tell dr I had to push. In two pushes she was out!!! Had a little scare with the umbilical cord around her neck but she's perfectly fine! 7 lbs even 20.5 inches. I'm so in love!!!!
Congratulations. I had the umbilical cord wrapped around my neck when I was born :)
