Well, since I last posted Miss Priss decided to come into this world. When I went to the doc. yesterday I was dilated 3.5, and my doc. stripped my membranes more. We had also set up April 5th as the day to induce. He felt I wouldn't make it long, but then again we thought that last week, ha! Well, he was on the money. I woke up this morning around 5 having contractions. They were about 10 minutes apart. By the time I woke John up at 6, they were b/t 4-5 minutes apart. We called my mom to come over & watch the boys so we could head to the hospital. Contractions at this point were 3-4 min. apart. When we got there I was hurting pretty bad and begged the nurse to tell me that I better be at least at 4, lol. She said, "Sister you are at 7!" WOW, was I shocked or what. They ordered my epidural right away. By the time I got it I was at 8.5 and they said we would be pushing soon. Well, the epidural was the best I had ever had cause I didn't feel anything, which was so different with the boys. The only setback was that I had to push longer than with them b/c of it. I still only pushed about 30 minutes and baby girl was here at 9:29 weighing in at 7 lbs 9 oz. She was a lot bigger than I thought, especially considering she was 15 days early. We are so blessed to have her here and for everything to go so well. Thank you all for for your thoughts & prayers!!!
