Doc broke my water about twenty min ago and I am waiting for the epi. Contractions picked up once the pit was up to 9. I was standing and swaying a lot to get through them.

Epi is in! Loooooove it. I can still move around but no pain.
DH nearly passed out again. Just like when I had DS. you would never know this was the guy who gave me all my ivf injections. He made it though the actual epi part but when the anesthiologist was giving me his talk about how the pump works afterwards I noticed that my handsome hubby looked a little gray. Lol! I nodded to the nurse to alert her and she is feeding him juice now.

I am glad you have your epi. Sorry that it was a little rough on your H. At least he was there for it. Right before I got my epi my H decided it was the opportune time to check the mail at home. I was on the verge of passing out when he got back. Hopefully the rest of your labor moves along quickly.

Did they check you before the epi? Your labor is a lot like my first. Good luck!

If you haven't, order food to have after that baby shows up! I ordered breakfast, and then I ate it once everything settled down!

She's here!
My epidural started to fail when I got to 7. We upped dosages but all that did was make my legs dead. I was feeling contraction pain but couldn't move. Hated it. We messed around with it for a couple hours until I got to 9. She was still at 0 station. I was in rough shape. We called the doc in 20 min later and I was ready to push! Fast and furious at the finish line. 15 minutes of pushing and she was born. No tearing!
She latched great and nursed for the first hour of skin to skin. She has a very strong suck reflex. I'm nursing her now and feeling ok about it. We will bust out a paci soon so I can sleep a bit. She's gorgeous and DH and have cried more than she has so far.
Louisa Joy. 9 lbs 1 oz. We can't believe she is finally here. I'll post pics when I can.
Thanks for rooting me on today. Xo.
