Baby Story & Pics (finally!!)
OK!! So, it finally happened I and I am back to tell the tales!
Baby Leah was born Saturday, December 2nd at 9:47am. She was 8 pounds, 10 oz and was 20 inches long.
I started to feel little signs of labor Friday morning. I called the doc and he had me meet him at the hospital for monitoring. I was 2 inches dialated which was 2 inches more than I was the day before! Thy monitored me for a bit and then sent me home, but expected me back later that night.
About 2pm on Friday, I started feeling contractions that I could time. They went from 15 minutes to 6 minutes to 3 minutes - all over. I called my parents and family and they started the drive up from PA knowing "something" was happening!!
I had contractions alllll night (as family members laughed at me in pain  ) then at about 1:30, we decided to pack it up and head to the hospital. So, of course EVERYONE had to go with us - it was hilarious!! It was my parents, IL's, my sis, and his bro & sis. What a parade in the hospital at 1 in the morning!! 
I was 4 cm when I got to the hospital and by about 3am got the epidural. So, I then slept from about 3am to 7am and when I woke up, they had me start to PUSH!!
I pushed for almost 2 and a half hours. The baby was just not dropping enough, so they said I had a chance for a c-section. Once I heard that, I basically gave up pushing because it hurt so much (they had turned off the epi and hour ago!) and I had no energy left!!
So, they took me in for a c-section and Leah was born at 9:47am!!
We were SOOO lucky to have our friend Lois working at the hospital, so she got pics of the c-sect and the baby coming out. It's awesome!!
So, now I am home and in pain from the c-sect. My mom is here for the week which is helping me tremendously! I don't know what I would do without her!!
Leah is BEAUTIFUL and I will attach some pics....
Thanks for all the caring and support from you gals - you rock! and I couldn't have done it without you!
