My OB stripped my membranes yesterday morning, and I was contracting within the hour. Spent all day at home with irregular contractions trying to get stuff done (DS wanted to make two pumpkin pies so we did that), and around 6:30 PM the contractions became really painful in my back and were 3 minutes apart so we went to triage.
They made me walk around for an hour, finally dilated to 4, and was admitted and THANK GOODNESS because back labor is no joke and I wanted to marry the anesthesiologist who placed my epidural. Baby girl Holly came after two pushes just after 2 AM and weighed 9 lbs 6 oz. We’re both doing well!

Thanks guys! They’d been testing her blood sugar levels since she’s on the larger side and she had a few readings that were too low, so she spent several hours in the special care nursery today. But she had two good numbers in a row and is back in the room with me now.

sundog hopefully her numbers stay in the normal range! They tested DD3 the day we were supposed to check out because her leg kept shaking but luckily everything was normal.
