The birth story

Logan was born on Oct 17th at 7:06 pm. He weighs 5 pounds 15 oz and is 18 1/2 inches long.
So for the last 2 weeks before Logan was failing his BPP's but passing his nst's. They really were debating inducing at 38 weeks but they wanted to wait till he was at least 6 pounds on the growth scans. 2 times they almost changed there minds but because he did so well on the nsts they let it go. Well at 39 weeks 4 days they decided it was time and not to weight any longer (i'm high risk). So on Oct 16th they had us come in at 7 pm to do a cervix softening since I was only 1 cm dilated but my cervix was hard and 4 cm long. They hooked me up to an nst and watched. Logan passed easily but they asked if I was having contraction. I said no just braxton and hicks and they said no those are contractions. I said well they don't hurt and they said hu. They were 8 minutes apart. There was no room in the hospital for us because it was a full moon so they left us in triage and put in the meds. We watch tv till midnight while the b/h continued (or what they said was contraction) then finally a room became available and they admitted us. Turns out we went to the same room that we gave birth to dd2!. They set us up in there then put in more meds. They then gave me this wonderful sleeping pill that make me feel like I was hanging in a hammock and I went to sleep. i woke up at 3 am as labor had started! They checked me and i was 3 cm dilated and starting to efface. So they broke my water and for the next 30 minutes I started walking and doing the exercise ball. Then they checked me and i was 4cm and 80% effaced so I asked for an epidural then we went to sleep till 5 am. Woke up and they check and i was 8 cm! Waited some more and at 6:50 I was 100% So they told me to push when i felt like it and at 7:06 logan was born! I didn't tear but I did get a huge hemorrhoid (would have rather teared!). He was 100% fine as was I. Over all that was the easiest Labor of my life and we never needed the pictosin. My dh was amazing threw all of this and I am really proud at how great he did.
