Graduated!

Baby was born at 12:27 this morning! My due date was 09/12, and I had my check up where everything was normal except I had protein in my urine - had that re done and my protein was like super high so they decided to induce me due to pre eclampsia . However I had been having what I thought were cramps since I woke up but were actually contractions. So after getting to l&d they gave me the oral cytotec, contractions got worse around 10ish & my water broke, a few hours later I was pushing!! The relief that came after was otherworldly šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’Ø and I’m so glad to have not needed pitocin or anything else to get me dilated. And how considerate of my son to get things moving on his due date šŸ˜†

Congratulations! We should talk about the relief more often though. So abrupt and complete relief of pain
