| | So, Aidan Lucy-Marie was born Wednesday, March 25th, at 11:34 am. She weighted 7pds1oz and was 19.3 inches long. I had a induction scheduled for the 25th so we had to check in the night before to start the medicine. We got to the hospital at 11pm and by 12:30 they had me in a L&D room, hooked up to my IV and my medicine started. So my mom, CJ and I spent the night in at the hospital, they slept, I got about an hour of sleep the whole night..lol. I got a second dose of meds at 4:30 and when the nurse checked on me at 6:30 I told her I had to get up, she didn't want to let me, but I knew something didn't feel right, so I got up and my water broke!! At about 8am I was only 2cm and had no progress, they started the induction meds and I got my epideral about 9ish. Drugs are good! I couldn't feel anything from my chest to the tips of my toes! By about 10:30 I was feeling some pressure and told the nurse, so she had the doctor check and guess what, fully effaced and dialiated! I started pushing at like 11:15 and about 5 or 6 sets of pushes later, we had Aidan!! She was perfect, no complications, totally healthy and BEAUTIFUL!! I did have some complications and if you wanna know, ask, but everything is fine now and me and the baby are healthy. We came home from the hospital Friday afternoon and have all been adjusting to this new life. My mom stayed with us until today (she was a life saver!) and my daddy came up for two days to see her. It is the most wonderful thing in the world to be a mom and CJ is an amazing daddy! It's an adjustment but totally worth it!
Thank you to everyone for the warm wishes and comments! We are so very happy and appriciate everyone and thank them for their support! |
