We were to go in an be induced on March 11(Tuesday) at 9pm.
Doak and I went to the hospital and things started to progress that night. We thought that things were going well. We went through all of Wednesday and nothing happened. About 5pm on Wednesday, I had not progressed enough on my own and they started talking to me about going home and waiting until something happened on its own. We were not very happy about that.
About 7pm the dr came in and we broke my water. We didn’t want to go home without the baby. We thought that this might make things go quicker! No such luck! I was having contractions, but nothing more that that. They gave me an epidural about 10pm. We waited and waited.
Finally about 2am, the dr came in and said that he wasn’t coming out on his own. So they started prepping me for surgery. It is not what I wanted, but I was thankful that it was going to be over soon.
At 3:48am, Trey was born. We found out that it was a good thing that we had a C section. The umbilical cord was wrapped around his little neck twice. If we would have proceeded with a normal delivery, things would have gone back quickly.
He was 7lbs 7oz and 19 inches long and perfect!
Here are the proud mom and dad at the hospital. We were all pretty tired after the entire ordeal. We had to stay in the hospital for 4 days after Trey was born. We were very ready to all come home!
