INTRODUCING ELIZABETH MAI BLEICK!

Things have been pretty hectic and reason number one why I haven't blogged in awhile. Let's see Labor started on May 2, 2012 at 4:30pm with contractions being 5 minutes apart and by 7pm they started coming at 4 minutes apart. I called the md on call about 8:15pm and she told me to go to hospital and they would check me from there. We got to the hospital and that is when James became nervous and was trying to hurry the ER up and he initially wanted to go straight to Labor and Delivery but I reassured him that we had to go through ER first before we could go up there. When I got to Labor and Delivery they checked me and contractions were still at 4 minutes apart and I was only a 1 so when she contacted md, the md had me to walk for an hour...so I walked for an hour no progression and by this time it was 11pm. The doctor decided to admit me and would check with me in the morning. Morning came and Dr. Tidwell came in now progression and since I was at 40 weeks she went ahead and broke my water and started IVs and Pitocin. By the way I LOVED THE EPIDURAL ( WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE)! By 6pm Dr. Tidwell came back and I was maybe a 4 and she didn't like how I was progressing and figured it was time to do a C Section since Miss Elizabeth needed some help entering the world. C Section wasn't what I wanted but she would have never came otherwise because she was lodged. At 7:02pm on May 3, 2012! I can't explain but the best sound in the world was hearing her cry. They brought her over to me after they checked her out then off they went to the nursery for clean up and etc. Of course I could tell James didn't know whether to stay with me or go but he did go with the baby and this little girl has him right where she wants him. We are doing great and hard to believe she will be three weeks old tomorrow. The time really passes by so quick. I have attached pictures of her below.
