Pregnancy Info HOME

Ambber was born at 4:38 in the afternoon after being induced around 8am. It was a very easy process. After getting VERY STRONG contractions for about 3 hours I caved and wanted an epidural. By then there was a line and I was SUPER grumpy and in pain. After the epidural I was fine my legs were numb and I was a happy camper. The only semi-problem during the whole labor was that Ambbers heart rate was around 100-115 the nurses werent too worried. I just had to wear an oxygen mask for the rest of the labor which was uncomfortable but needed to keep Ambber healthy. They stopped giving me potocin before the epidural because the contractions were so strong and on top of eachother. But then they didnt give me more because I was moving along just fine on my own. I only had to push for 30 min. and in that time dh was signing and bringing in flowers. After she was born she was wide awake not crying for over 2 hours with eyes wide open the entire time. After the epidural everything was so easy not at all what i was expecting. It was a wonderful experiance i would do it a million more times just to see my baby Ambber again.
