Mom and baby are doing great.

Thursday the 11th of September I had a Dr. appointment, I had been dilated to 2 and 90% effaced for two weeks. My Dr. (Dr. Lindstrom) stripped my membranes and said if you don't go into labor by Monday give me a call and I will induce you. After a long weekend of walking and doing everything to start labor nothing happened! So Monday morning I called and was scheduled to be induced the next day Tuesday at 12pm. I was so scared but ready for the baby to come, plus that was Jeff's day off and my mom got out of school at 1pm so I knew she would be able to be there too. It took us a while to get into our room but at 2pm they started my Labor 2 hours later I was able to walk around to keep it going. I only walked around for 45 min, and was in so much pain my vision started to blur. I freaked out and we walked back to my room they checked me and I was a 4. So they started my IV for my strep B and and also so I could get an epidural. After my epidural things slowed way down! Plus my water was not breaking! Dr. Lindstrom wouldn't come break my water until I had both does of the Meds for the strep B. After a very long night of waiting for my water to break, at about 3am a nurse came to check me to see if Liberty had turned. She was face up and was giving me terrible back labor plus it would be harder to push her out this way. So they moved in all different positions to try to get her to turn over. No luck but my water did break while she was checking me. After that I went to complete in about an hour. I had the best nurse ever all night we all loved her, her name was Kris. And after 20 min of pushing her shift was over and had to leave I was so sad. After 2 1/2 hours of pushing Liberty Mae finally came out with a little scowl on her face. It was too cute. I was so tired I could barley look at her when she came out I felt like I was gone! I couldn't keep my eye's open! That was hard work but totally worth it. The hospital stay was long and terrible and we were glad to come home. Our favorite nurse Kris even found us and came to see little Liberty I thought that was very nice of her.
