We had our baby girl Aubrey on March 6th 2009 at 9:36PM. She decided she didn't want to come out on her own. I was so uncomfortable that last month of pregnancy. I worked full time up until the time I had her. That was crazy! I was 40 weeks and 2 days when I had to be enduced. I had to be at the hospital at 6am that Friday for the enduction. They gave me the medicine to start the process at 6:20AM. So Charlie and I waited it out in the hospital and watched TV. I finally started feeling some contractions. So we had more waiting to go. I started getting really bad contractions and said I was ready for the pain medicine. They gave me the medicine Nubane. That was crazy it knocked me out for 2 hours. I slept great. I had not been sleeping during that last couple months of the pregnancy, I was so uncomfortable. So I woke up 2 hours later with really bad contractions now that I was trying to get through. I did'nt want to get the epidural shot too early. So I waited as long as I could then the nurse checked on me and said I could get it. So I said ok because I was in so much pain. After the epidural I was good to go. I couldn't feel a thing. So I slept some more. Then the doctor came in and said I wasn't progressing so they had to bump up the amount of medicine to help me dilate more. About an hour and half later I was having pressure. They checked me and said you are almost ready. So that was a great thing to here. I was so hungry and anxious. Probably another hour or so I was ready. I pushed her out in a half hour and they kept trying to stop me to wait for the doctor. The funny thing is the only thing that hurt me was the stupid blood pressure cuff. So we had our precious baby and I felt so relieved.
