Baby Han.nah L.ee arrived today at 1:49pm weighing 8lb 4oz 21in long, almost a whole 1.5lb less than her big sister ππ»ππ»ππ» The lord answered my prayers for a smaller baby! Haha
I was due for my induction today at 9am. And just as her older sister did, she decided that since it was eviction day that she should probably come out. My contractions started around 630pm last night, but obv wasnβt convinced since ya know, been there done that with these contractions all damn week. But they kept getting stronger and closer together and by 945pm we were on our way to the hospital. Contractions kept going about 2min apart for a few more hours. I got a shot of Nubain so I could hopefully get some rest before it was time to push. But after I got that, my contractions started fizzling out.
They started Pitocin around 815am. Contractions were steady and painful for a while. I finally broke down and asked for the epidural and got that around 1130. I was about 4cm dilated at that point. I took a nice long nap and woke up around 115-130 with some very intense pressure. I told them it felt like she was coming out and I had intense pressure and urge to push. The dr came in to check me and I was 9.5cm and she was like βnot much longer! Hang tight and youβre gonna have a baby soon!β As soon as she left the room I had multiple more contractions, each one feeling more and more pressure. It got so bad that I asked βare you sure sheβs not coming out of me???β The nurse checked me as soon as I said that and said βthereβs a head right there. Get the dr back in here!β The dr came back in, I pushed 2 times and out she came!
Suuuuch a huge difference in experience to what I had with N. The nurses keep commenting about how big she is and Iβm all like βare you KIDDINGπ§ Sheβs tiny!!!β Sheβs so sweet though. Already nursing like a champ. And she looks just like N did as a newborn. I canβt wait for them to meet β€οΈ
Thank you all for agonizing with me over the past week and a half over this dramatic drawn out prodromal labor. Squish pics as a present:
