Repeat Fertilityties Offenders:: Pregnant with #2 -plus Chrissy

Thanks for updating this for me ladies :) I appreciate it! Yep, I got my membranes stripped yesterday morning, around 10:30 or 11:00 am... went home, had lots of cramping... while I was making dinner around 5, they started getting pretty intense. We ate, and left our house at 6 to take Christian to his Grandma and Grandpa's house. By the time we got back up near our house (its a 30 min drive) we decided it was time to go to the hospital. After an hour, I was in a LOT of pain... was at a 4 1/2 and 90% effaced. The on call doctor ok'd the epidural, and it took them a little while to get the epidural in b/c they couldn't find a vein to start an IV.. at one point, I had two nurses and the anestheisologist trying to find one at the same time... it was nuts... but once it was in, at about 9 pm things were great.... the doctor came and broke my water, hooked up a slow drip of pitocin just to make sure things didn't slow down with the epidural. By about 11:15 or so, he reached in and said I was at a 10 and with the next contraction I'd be pushing. Well, I think I pushed about 10-15 minutes, maybe 4 or 5 sets of 3 pushes and out she came! She didn't even leave a scratch!!! She was 7 lbs 5 oz and 20 1/2 inches long... pink as could be.. cried right away. She's passed all of her tests with flying colors, except the hearing test but they think she's got fluid in her ears still, said they likely just need to dry out a bit. She looks just like Christian, except her head isn't as deformed because she wasn't stuck in the birth canal for a couple hours waiting for my epidural to wear off like he was hahahaha.... I will post pictures soon... possibly later today even :)

HopeN, how are you and your little one doing? Have you picked a name?
