    @Den mom: @akcoffeebean: how are you doing mamas?

    I'm now about 5 hours into my induction...I was 3.5 cm when we checked in at 7:30 which was a big surprise bc I was a 0 at my last appt on Saturday.

    I'm managing the pain ok for now. It was super painful earlier when my contractions were about every 2-3 min apart so I asked for an epi but the anesthesiologist was unable to get it in (I expected difficult as it was crazy difficult since I'm so swollen and it took over an hour to get the epi in with my son).

    So now we wait at 5cm.

    I forgot to mention that I felt like I was leaking since about 10:30 am. And when she checked it at 5cm earlier at 2:00 it really made the water gush out. My ob just checked me at 2:30 and I'm now a 7. That was great news, I knew once my water broke I would progress more. Contractions are getting a bit harder to breathe through but we're making progress and my ob was surprised I'm still smiling.

    C'mon lets get this show on the road!!!

    Thanks for all of the well wishes.
    Miles Henry was born at 10:01 this morning weighing 9 lbs.
    Pitocin was started around 4am and I was 4 cm to start. Little change until my water was broken at 8. Things moved quickly after that and with 3 pushes in one contraction he was here! He was ready to eat then take a nap.

    @Cherrybee: things are going better. Little guy's tongue tie had been fixed but we are still mostly pumping. He passed his birth weight so no more waking him in the middle of the night.

    She's here. I'm zoning in and out of sleep. I got Nubain shortly after the last post and things flew at lightning speed from there. She came at 3:30. Being examined in the NICU for a bit bc her oxygen levels were bordering high 80s- low 90s and they want to see ~95. Hoping it's just a bit of fluid that she needs to get out of her lungs bc she's a little bit younger at 37+3, and they also said possibly bc the last phase of labor was so fast.

    That Nubain kicked my butt and made me so sleepy. But I think I'm finally a but more alert now.

    Just went down to NICU. E's spending the night in the NICU. Her "color" looks a lot better than earlier though but her chest is still rising and falling a but difficultly. They did a chest X-ray earlier so I'm gonna call ~11:00 for the results.

    Im praying that her lungs absorb the fluid soon and she continues to breath well on her own which she's doing pretty good with now.

    Her blood sugar is normal and initial labs show no results but she's getting antibiotics just in case of any infection.

    @Den mom: congratulations! He is adorable! @iluvboba637: congratulations! Happy to hear everyone is doing better! Were you able to get the chest x ray results?

    @autumnleaves: the NICU Doctor said her chest X-ray shows what looks to be immature lungs rather than infection. They put in a breathing tube but she's doing most of the breathing on her and she looks like she's resting better. The breathing tube will probably stay in for 24-48 hours.

    Girls, last night was so heartbreaking. The baby next door kept crying all night and I could hear the dad repeadtly ask the baby in a mad tone - "why are you mad?!" I'm sure he was just very tired but I couldn't help thinking at least your baby is in your room with you. Big hugs to all the NICU mamas and angel baby mamas - it's tough.

    @iluvboba637: congrats on babies arrival. Glad to hear they don't think it's an infection. Hope she gets out of the nicu real soon! It's gotta be tough for you! Hang in there.
