My babies are here!

Hi ladies! I saw that Mrs.Lee04 informed everyone that the babies are here .... Thanks so much!!

I had a scheduled induction on Wednesday at 37wks, 6days. I was already having contractions and my bp was spiking with protein in my urine so the OB said I could be induced since both babies were head down.

It was relatively smooth! I labored overnight but the big contractions started after he ruptured baby A's membranes ... from 8 until about noon, i felt some big contractions. i held off on the epidural b/c i needed to get some grading done and i knew i would be too tired once i got the epidural. sure enough, the laptop went away shortly after the epidural kicked in. I was fully dilated around 3:15. Baby A came at 3:57pm weighing 5lbs, 13oz and Baby B followed soon after at 4:06 weighing 5lbs, 8oz.

I was very relieved and happy to have them be over 5lbs. aside from some blood sugar fluctuations in the younger baby, we're all okay and they came home with me!

their names are: Kristian Hattie and Vivienne Amelle

Thanks for all of your support, ladies. i'll try to attach a picture
