Colin Jacob arrived at 6:32 this evening (12/17). He weighs 6lb4oz and is 19 3/4 long! He was very high during the whole induction and the nurse actually got out all the stuff to prep me for a c-section (didn't tell me) At about 9.5cm dilated the epidural wore off and I had the worst back pain and contractions. Turns out he was stuck behind my pubic bone (I think thats what she said...I was in agony so it was hard to pay attention) The nurse had me labor in different positions without the epidural for about an hour (OMG that sucked. The contractions were bad enough but the back pain didn't let up between contractions) then when she was convinced we'd gotten him to move they upped my dose again. Not too much longer afterwards I pushed for about 45 minutes and out he came. He has a huge bruise on his head from being stuck on my bone, poor baby.

Obviously we are completely in love. I'll add pics later when I'm not on my phone. Nursing is going ok so far and right now my husband is rocking him while singing. I'm about to die from my heart swelling too large for my chest.
