Pene.lope Abi.gail was born 8/12/17 at 12:44am. 7lbs, 9oz, 20in. I'll post some pictures later.
I started having contractions around 8:30 that quickly became timeable and pretty painful. We got to the hospital around 11, I was 5cm and fully effaced. Full blown contractions, they weren't sure they were going to be able to do the epidural in time. Finally got the epidural and within minutes I started to feel the urge to push. They checked me again, I was 10cm and my water broke as they were checking me. 5-6 pushes and she was out. Epidural dulled the contractions but I most certainly felt the "ring of fire".
Total time in labor: 4 hours
I'm completely floored at how fast it went. I feel SO much better this time around than I did with DS. Baby girl is latching and eating well. I'm so happy she's here!
