Oct. 18, 2022- Arrived at the hospital at 8:36pm…First cervical check 2.5cm, cervix is 75% effaced and -3 station. Pitocin will start at midnight when she reaches 39 weeks exactly- hospital rules!
Oct. 19, 2022- 5:59am- Contractions finally getting stronger and more consistent. Pitocin is being disliked up every half hour now. Owen keeps shifting off the monitor. Nurse says that’s a good sign that he may be moving into position!
6:34am- Contractions every 3-4 minutes apart…breathing is deeper than before…pain level 4/10
8:00 am- -3 station, 3cm, broke water! OH MY- It sounded like a river! Nurse joked and said there must have been 2 gallons of fluid in there!
11:00 7cm, 80% effaced, -1 station…Getting baby warmer ready! Also took some Nubane to help relax her muscles and take the edge off the contractions.
11:15am- She felt the baby move down! Look at the difference in the belly with no water in tact and baby shifting down!
11:44am- 8-9 cm, 90% effaced!
12:00 pm- 9cm, 0 station, 90% effaced!
12:35pm- Plus 1 station, small lip of cervix….trying not to push!
1:02pm- Happy Birthday Owen Joseph!
