Ava 9.17.2010

Ava is here safe and sound and we could not be any happier!! I was scheduled to be induced on thursday the 16th we waited for a phone call and never got one so at around 9am Scott called Labor and Delivery and asked what was going on and they said come in. We were both so excited BUT when we got there we got some bad news they were full and couldn't admit me AHHHHH!!! I was pretty upset since we never got a call and then when they told us to come in they sent us home what a disaster. Friday the 17th we got a phone call at 5:30am they told us to come on in thank goodness when we got there they admitted me pretty quick. They started my IV's at 8:30am and came in with the pitocin at about 9:00am I was dialted to a 4 for awhile I decided to get my epidural before the Doctor came and broke my water. At 11:30am the Doctor came and broke my water and the nurse said she would be back in about an hour to check on my progression. I started to feel a lot of pain and told Scott the contractions must be getting hard because they HURT!!! I couldn't take the pain anymore so we called the nurse it was 12:50 and she said it was time to push what in the world just an hour ago I was at a four no wonder my epidural had completly worn off. They paged the Doctor I started pushing at 1:00pm and our BEAUTIFUL little girl arrived at 1:11pm weighing 6lbs 11oz and 20 perfect inches long.

oh she is so cute! I hate that you only pushed for 11 minutes! I had to push a lot longer then that! That is dumb that they told you to come in and then sent you home! She is so adorable! I can't wait to meet her!
