8lbs. 2oz. 21inches long
I got to the hospital at about 5:45am January 11th and got all checked in at about 6am, they got me all ready and what-not and started my pitocin at about 7am, checked me and I was 5cm. Brett, my Mom, Dad, & my brother Ethan went to get breakfast at Denny's because we all figured it would be awhile, my doctor came in at about 7:45am and broke my water and checked me and he said I was 6+ cm. So I called my Mom and told her, said I was alright and all that, then a few minutes later I had my first real hard contraction and needless to say I called my Mom back and said get back NOW lol. Then I got a pain shot of Nubain, which didn't do ANYTHING for me. I was having bad contractions practically constantly from about 8:30am-9:40am I decided somewhere in that time that I wanted an epidural so they brought in the cart and everything and were getting everything ready to do my epidural and the nurse had to check me again and I was 9 3/4cm and she said I couldn't get it and I about died! haha. Right after that I started pushing, I pushed for about 20 minutes and her head started to come. The nurse was telling me to stop pushing for a few minutes because we were waiting on my Doctor who was in the hospital on his way to my room but Madi wasn't about to wait LOL, I wasn't even pushing and her head was still coming, so they yelled out in the hallway for the other Doctor who was already there and she came running in and had JUST put on her gloves and out came Madi at 10:05am!
Labor was the hardest most painful thing I've ever experianced, even though it only lasted 3 hours start to finish (I got SUPER lucky), the not having pain relief makes a HUGE difference! Believe me! She's perfect though and I love her SOOOOO much, I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat :)
