Jaxon was born yesterday morning March 6th at 7:32 am. He was 7lbs 12oz and 19.5 inches long. He has a head full of dark brown hair and eyes that are brown.
I was induced with pitocin at 7pm I was dialated to a 3 an "very squishy" going in. At 5am, I was dialated to a 4-5, they broke my water so they could find his heartbeat with internal monitoring. It had dropped significantly and they could not distinguish it from mine, which was high as I am sure you can imagine, with the external monitors. When they broke, they noticed quite a bit of meconium in the water and began an amnioinfusion. At 7am his heart rate dropped again but, in those 2 hours I had dialated fully. My contractions were really strong and close and I was having trouble breathing through them. My body was pushing him out already. Finally they checked me and gave me the go ahead to push with the pushing that my body was doing on its own and he crowned within 15 minutes. We had to wait for the dr to make it and with one big push Jax was born. It was not what I had hoped for but it was an amazing pain med free birth.
: It is crazy the difference that made I remember so much less of Cy's birth. And it is crazy how the nurses here are in awe that I did not have an epidural or other pain meds.
Anyway, I will write a biger birth story later.
