Indee Rae was born on July 23 at about 320ish am- 8 lbs 5 ounces- 20 1/2 inches long :) So she was definately a bigger one:) I was afraid the newborn clothes wouldnt fit but they do:) which is good because she has soooooooo many cute outfits:)
So heres the story....
My water started to break a week ago and we went to the hospital, but because it was a tiny tear they couldnt detect amniotic fluid, so they sent us home. We went back tot he drs a couple days later for the same thing. Again, the same thing. That night it got a little bit worse so we went into Labor and Delivery as soon as we woke up the next morning. They said it wasnt looking and sounding normal so they decided to keep me and that to make sure everything is ok they were going to deliver her within 24 hours. I was only at a 1 1/2 (disheartening) so they started to give me pills to try to get things started before giving me pitocin. On the third dose they checked me and I was only at a 2 1/2. More disheartening because I was in a lot of pain. So they gave me pain meds through the iv. It helped for a little bit but then my contractions shot WAAAAAYY up. So I got the epidural (I dont know why I was ever not going to). They checked me an hour after the epidural and I was at a 6. Then a half hour later I was at a 10. The nurse asked If i wasnted to start pushing. It all happened so much wuicker than I thought. I freaked out and and told them I would like to wait. So they came back 45 min later and we started. She was born at about 320 am healthy. She wasnt crying. So they kept trying to make her cry and after a few minutes they gave up :) She has jaundice and has had to keep getting blood tests. SOOOO sad. I cried more than she did. We go to the drs today to see if she needs to be put under the lights. (Sry for the grammer and spelling mistakes... Im not going back and corresting anything)
Here she is.....

Congratulations! She is beautiful! Glad everything turned out well, and I hope she doesn't have to be under the lights too much. Getting those shots is never fun - always much harder on mommy than on baby.
