After much wait and anticipation Kia Ora is finally here. She was scheduled to be induced on her actual due date, July 28th, 2010. I had tried so hard the past 3 weeks to get her to come early by walking a lot, push-ups, teaching hip-hop, curb walking, cleaning house/car/car/house...you name it. Nothing!
Finally Wednesday morning around 1 am I started having mild contractions. I did not think much of it. Around 4 am my contractions were getting stronger and were closer together. Around 5:15 they were about every 5 to 7 minutes apart. I got up and started getting ready since we had to be at the hospital at 6:30 am for the induction. By the time I got admitted into the hospital was brought into my room my water broke on it's own, and I was dilated to 9cm. The nurse rushed to call my doctor who was already on his way on his bicycle may I add. It was pretty funny to watch him walk into my room with his cyclist outfit on.
Kia Ora was born at 8:46 am. She was 7 lbs 12 oz, and 20" long. She is a little cutie. I must admit it was my easiest labor yet. I felt great before and after. I even felt pretty good during the delivery (I just felt really tired).
Kiki with very happy mommy!
