Induction

I apologize for the lack of pictures on this blog but I am in a hospital bed and blogging from my phone. I know, this is a true sign of my blogging addiction. We had an appointment this morning at 9 and we had moved from 2 and a half cm to 4 cm so we just headed over to the Women's center to get it started. They have gotten everything set up. Wes took the kids to lunch and I think everyone is in route. I am getting an epidural to help slow the actual birthing process. Seems strange since I am not in any pain or discomfort. The doctor will be up soon to break my water. If history is any indication it won't be long after that and we will be welcoming baby #4. I will post again soon.


Update: 1:15 p.m. Epidural is in and i am contracting on a really good pattern. They were about 2 minutes apart. Feeling alright. I can feel the contractions across the top of my belly but as you can see it isn't slowing me down.....yet. Dr. broke my water so we should have a baby before long.


Update: 2:37 p.m. Baby boy arrived at 1:53 today. He was breech but delivered fine. God is good and i didn't have to be rushed for a c-section. I am greatful for my big hips now. No pain and i feel great. Eric's parents made it so everyone was here. Will post pics and details in a bit. I must eat! :)
