18:30 on 04/07/2011. Two excited parents-to-be ready to depart for a quick meal and then to the hospital to begin the induction procedures.
An abbreviated timeline:
Cervadil: Thursday night
Pitocin Started: 07:35
Water Broken: 08:20
Epidural: 09:30
6cm: 18:15
8cm: 20:00
Pushing: 22:45
Birth: 23:33
Baby to Room: 03:15
Poop everywhere: 10:30 - the rest of my life
It was a long, rough day for mom. Lots of drugs and the unfortunate side-effects that go along with them. Everything seemed to take forever until pushing started and then it was emergency c-section and all over in no time at all.
The worst part is that I was nearly done with a Starcraft level I'd been working hard to beat and all of a sudden the nurse says "she's complete, it's time to start pushing." Thank goodness for save games.
