Cadence was born on December 31st 2008 at 5:35 am. She was 5 pounds 10 ounces and 18 inches long.
My water broke on the 30th at 4:30 pm while I was taking a nap (but that sure woke me up). I woke up Ryan and he was so excited!!! After being admitted to the hospital for a few hours they FINALLY found a vein to start the IV. Then I got the WONDERFUL epidural and finally got to relax. Because I wasn't progressing on my own, they gave me pitocin to make me progress more. Not much happened from then until about 2 am. I finally dilated to an 8 around 3 am and they called in the DR. Before the Doctor came in the nurse checked me one more time and said that she was about an inch and a half away from coming out! WOW!! So, in comes the Doctor and after 8 quick pushes she came out. SHE WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!! It was an awesome experience! Ryan, my mom and my sister Natalie were all there and were so helpful!!
Here are some pictures of her. I have some video too, but I will put that on later.
