Well, I was due April 24th with her, but I was having some complications due to having preeclampsia. I had a doctors appointment on the 8th of April were we set up my day for induction, which was supposed to be the 12th. Me and Chris went home that night had our friends over for dinner and they brought their cute kids. I had been having some slight back pain all night, but didn't think anything of it. After our friends left me and chris just relaxed and watched a movie then went to bed. At four in the morning, I woke up thinking I had just peed the bed, when I stood up I heard my water break, it sounded like a huge balloon popping and was loud enough it woke chris up. He jumped out of bed and went running around packing the truck up while I called my mom and dad to let them know we were on the way to the hospital. I hopped in the shower just because I needed to calm down and feel clean. Chris wasn't very happy lol, but we made it to gunnison from richfield in about 18 minutes, chris was only speeding a little i guess lol. I get the hospital and get all ready to have the baby. I was already dilated to a 6, so I got the epidural pretty fast, and it worked amazing. My doctor was in St George when they called and said I was having the baby. He was amazing and got in his plane and flew to gunnison to be there to deliver me. I was not in any pain really, just relaxed visiting with my brothers and parents and hubby. I think I was in shock for the most part. When we finally started pushing, it only took about twenty minutes to push and have her out. She was born and 9:33 a.m. So only about five and a half hours of labor, mostly pain free. She weighed 6 pounds, 2.7 ounces. 19 inches long and just perfect! One of the best days of my life!
