I checked in at 6am..pitocin started at 740 and also antibiotics. Doctor broke my water around 10 and then I got the epidural shortly after. ☺ nurse said i was at a 3 about an hour ago so we still have some time to go. My only complaints is in hungry and I can still feel the contractions a little but overall I'm happy

Baby Katelyn arrived today at 348pm (well i need to recheck ha) 7.4lbs 20 inches.
Pitocin started at 745am, things were progressing slowly till I went from 6 to 10cm in about 30 minutes.. I had an epidural and then About 3 hours later I was major pain again, so I had my epidural strength upped. It was no wonder my epidural wasn’t working that well since apparently I started progressing crazy fast.
Once the epi was upped, it worked and all I could feel was pressure. Nurse checked me and said I was at a 10. She asked me to do a practice push and midway yelled to stop ha. Babies head was almost out so she ran to get the doctor. Doc got there.. second push baby was out. No tears and baby is healthy.
Will post some photos soon they weren’t kidding about second kids coming faster.
