Baby Sophia

Finally my little baby girl has arrived. Last Tuesday I had my doctors appointment and told me that everything was good to go. He checked me and told me I was already a 5. I was very excited to hear that. Then he scheduled me to be induced on Monday at 11am. I was really nervous because when I had Nathan my epidural had not worked. It only worked for twenty minutes and then dissapeared so I was not looking forward to having those crazy contractions.
We headed to the hospital Monday morning and I had the most wonderful nurse named Saddie (and now that I think of it I should have taken a picture with her) she was wonderful. She was so nice and very helpful, I felt extremely comfortable with her. After starting the Pitosin, Dr. Meredith came in and broke my water around 1:30pm. They put my epidural in around 2, I was really scared it wouldn't work, since it didn't work with Nathan and I was in extreme pain. Anyways, Sophia pop out into this world at 3:50pm. She weighed 8 lbs, 1 oz and was 19.5 inches long. On a sad note she broke her collar bone but the doctor assures me it will heal in about a week or so.
