My water broke in the parking lot of Econoprint and soon after, we were off to the hospital. Unfortunately, my labor didn't start up and after walking 10 miles in the halls of the hospital and experiencing a lot of frustration, we started pitocin at 2 a.m. I was determined to go natural, but ended up taking a few doses of staydol to help me rest up before the pitocin really kicked in.
When it kicked in, it did hard! Apparently, BB was lying transverse and it caused me horrible back labor. It was unreal. They had to turn him so he could finally be born -- causing me to rethink my position on natural childbirth. Thankfully, this is the last one, so I shouldn't have to worry about it again.
We all made it out alive and finally got some rest. We came home late Wednesday and the girl joined us after school on Thursday. My family feels complete. Hubby is so overjoyed at being a father. And, the girls are adjusting well -- overly eager to help.
