I had my baby girl! Here's my story!

posted 20th Dec
1st off: I had to be induced for medical reasons. So for those who are all anti-induction, go away or something  

I had my Baby Girl!! Yayayay!!!

I went into the hospital at 3:30pm on Tuesday 12-11, got admitted at 7pm, they gave me 2 induction pills (I forget what they're called) at 8pm, they checked me every 2 hours for dilation and all that. Those pills helped a little bit, I started having LITTLE BITTY contractions at 11pm, but that wasn't enough so they started me on Pitocin (puh-toe-sin) at 4am. Then they started checking me every 15 MINUTES! But not much of a change...UNTIL about 7:00am. Then...
OH MY DEAR SWEET GOD LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS MARY AND JOSEPH...
THEY STARTED!!!
They hurt so BAD i was SHAKING!! At about 8am I got an epidural...that didn't hurt AT ALL. NO i'm not a pussy!! I can handle pain...Well, i mean, i can handle it when it comes to tats and piercings and needles and all that smurf...lol. But NOT those contractions! Sorry! Not for me!
At about 8:30 the nurse checked me and said i was 5-6cm dilated. SHE WAS WRONG. My Dr. came in and checked me again and said i was only at 1-2cm!! I wasn't even supposed to get an epidural until I was at least 4cm! But oh smurfin well...i'm glad that nurse was wrong! Lol. Anyway, The Dr. went ahead and broke my water. All i felt was my butt get warm lol. Then i was dilating a CM every hour. At 9am i was a 3, at 10am i was a 4, and so on. Then finally at 2pm i was ready to go!!! I had been awake since i got there the night before, so i was really weak. I pushed for 2 hours and BAM! There she was!
The second she came out, they threw her up on my chest. Before that, they let me reach down and touch her head when it popped out lol. I didn't feel any 'pain' but i felt a relief/emptying kinda feeling when she came out ya know?
She has thick black hair with blonde streaks, and big blue eyes. She's the most beautiful thing i've ever laid my eyes on <3 It was an awesome experience for me...I had given birth to a life i made...and when she looks at me, i feel like superwoman. Like i'd do anything it takes for her to look at me, like i look at MY mom. For her to proudly say 'That's MY mom.'
She looks at me and i feel like me and her are the only people in the world. It's magical. I can be cheesy...i'm a Mom now

Already holding her own bottle like a big girl!

So basically, I wasn't expecting my kid to be almost 9 1/2 pounds. So what I WANTED to bring her home in, was out of the question. So I had to scrounge up something else lol.

My 7 year old nephew hasn't quite grasped the whole 'relationship' thing yet, so he calls her his 'little sister' lol.


Thanks for reading!
XOXO

I know you are not asking me, but I had a 16 days overdue 10lb baby and a 2 days overdue 9 lb baby.

Oh I thought she had her early. Wow you had some big babies! I had my son 5 weeks early 6lbs1oz 19 1/2in long. I always wonder how big he would have been if I could have made it to 40 weeks.

My second would have been exactly the size of her big sister if she had made it to 16 days od. So if I had both @ 38 weeks they would have been 8lbs.
