HI all, been awhile since I actually wrote on here. Although I am reading everything everyone posts everyday!! I just wanted to announce the birth of my lil man, Benjamin Wade. Born March 6, 2011 at 6:21pm. weighing in at 8lbs 11ozs and 19'' long. I was induced sunday morning at 8:15am. Got an epidural but had to have it re done, as it was not working. After the second one was put in, I was in heaven!! I didn't feel a thing. At 4:30pm I was still only 5cm and 80% thinned out. Ben was not reacting very well to my contractions, so they decided to check me at 5:45pm to see how far I was dilated and to put an internal heart monitor on Ben. When the dr checked me, I was at 10cm and fully thinned out. Started doing practice pushes to get baby to crown, by 6:15 I was ready to pop him out! 3 pushes, and my beautiful son was born! It was very emotional, because he had the cord wrapped around his neck, hence the reason hiis heart rate kept decreasing with every contraction. He had a lot of mucous in his mouth also, so he had trouble breathing at first, but when I finally heard him cry, and 40 mins later got to hold him for the first time, I didn't realize how much more love my heart could hold!!! I am so blessed to have such a wonderful family. I send lots of delivery dust to all the march mummies who are still waiting for their precious ones to arrive. I am going to try and upload a picture of my lil man, not sure if it will work or not....
