Boy!!!!
I can't believe it, we now have 2 boys and 2 girls! He was born at 7:41, and weighed 7lbs and was 21 inches long. He doesn't have a name yet though.
It was a REALLY long induction process and we got a little more excitement than we bargained for. After not dilating past a finger tip until being put on pitocin. I then dilated to 3, 2 hrs later. Then stalled and had trouble reaching 4. At this point, the ob wanted to break my water but when she felt for him, it felt like he had a hand above his head. So they did a quick look at the portable ultrasound and found he'd completely flipped breach!! I started crying! So she suggested I get an epidural then and call the high risk ob in to do a version if he thought it'd be possible. I got the epidural, then they called him in and he did another ultrasound. Little boy had flipped back!! Wonderful
I was dilated to 6 at that time. So I got to rest the rest of the time and let myself dilate. From that time until I delivered was about 3 goes. I only needed 1 stitch too!

Congratulations @4LittleBears!! How neat to have 2 of each
Edit: Love the name!!
Sorry I've been totally MIA. He's looking a little yellow to me so I'm trying to make sure he eats on a schedule. But the nurses aren't bringing him to me when they should. Usually I'd say cool, I get more sleep but I just want him to do well and he's working hard to latch and I'd really rather not give him a bottle because of that. It's not coming naturally to him for some reason.
