On 3.10.08 I was sent to the hospital to be induced because of my high blood pressure... At around 10 pm they made the decision to induce me. At 4:09 am they started my pitocin drop. At 7:45 am I was 4 centimeters dilated and they broke my water. At 9 the contractions started and all hell broke loose for me. The anesthesiologist came in the room around 11 to give me my epidural.. it didnt work so he came back in and dug deeper.. By 11:45 chuchy finally got there and I was in heaven.. Since the contractions had started they were back to back abou 15 seconds apart... They checked me around 4:40 and I was still 5 centimeters they then made the decision for me to have a c-section. At 4:45 pm I was moved from L&D Suite 5 to OR #2 where I was given a spinal block and at 5:09 pm my son came into the world. Me and chuchy immediately teared up and started crying and crying and looking at him. It took them an agonizing 20 minutes to put me back together and stitch me back up but after that chuchy went back to the L&D room to tell everyone and they handed the baby to me and switched me to a different bed (nearly dropping me) and rolled me back into the room where my mom, my brother, my sis-in-law, his mom, his sis, and his bro-in-law were anxiously waiting and crying at the sight of my son. It was the most beautiful experience I'll ever remember.. I'll never again have the miracle of delivering my first child but it was something I'll never forget (as you seen because a month later I'm remembering these drastic details) LOL..
