Hey girls!
Eth.an Har.low was born Monday night after a rather wonderful induction.
We went in Monday at 10:00, pitocin was hooked up by 11:00 and I was at a 3. When the midwife checked me at 3:00 I was at 4cm so she broke my water and things really started moving.
I resisted the epidural for a while, but when she came back shortly before 6 I was only at 5cm so I decided to get the epidural, which was fantastic. Just an hour later I started to feel pressure and it turns out I was fully dilated.
10 minutes of pushing later he was born at 7:09.
They put him on my chest right away, he cried and so did I. It was beautiful. They let him stay there for an hour and we had some bonding time before he was weighed.
He's perfect and I couldn't have asked for a better birth experience.
