Where do I start. Thursday morning Jeremy and I left the house at 4 am to be at the hospital at 5 to be induced. It was one of the longest rides to Little Rock. I don't think we hardly said two words to one another. There were so many things going through my head.
When we arrived at the hospital, my contractions were already 5 minutes apart so I had a feeling it might not be so long of a day. They started the pitocin at at 6 am. Dr Sellers came by about 7 and I was dilated to a 3. He said that it would be late afternoon before Brylee arrived. I assured him it would be early afternoon.
I had decided to wait as long as I could to get the epidural. I was having no pain until about 11. At 12, I couldn't take it any longer and requested the epidual. A little after 1 the edpiduaral started and only took on the left side. After 30 min and more medicine, it finally took on the right side. At 2 I was throwing up and Heather, my wonderful nurse, said that she figured I was a 10 and I was! I practice pushed for just a little while. Heather paged for Dr Sellers. It was going to fast that Dr Sellers almost didn't make it in there in time. When Dr Sellers walked in, he rushed to put on his gloves and clothes. He told Jeremy that if she came out before he got his gloves on that he would have to catch her. Jeremy said well if I have to catch her then you're not getting paid... LOL
Brylee Anne came into the world on September 24, 2009 at 2:39 pm weiging 5 lbs 8 oz and 20 inches long. Labor was great! I could definately do it again but not so sure about the being pregnant for 9 months.
She is so perfect! I feel so blessed to have this precious little girl.... More details to come later!
