We have a Baby Girl!

Madison Kay Jensen has finally arrived May 10, 2008 at 6:15 a.m. 7 lbs. and 19" of beautiful baby. We are so happy to finally have her at home. Things went much better than expected. I went to my Doc appt last Friday to make sure I still needed a full induction. As of 2:30 that afternoon, it was a definate yes. By the time I made it to the hospital to check in at 8:30 Friday night I had already started on my own. Just like Mac's labor it wasn't progressing very fast, so I started walking around the hospital to speed things up. But the contractions got so strong I asked for pain meds. They were great, but they stopped my contractions. I felt like the night was never going to end and I was never going to have this baby. So the nurse started me on PIT to get things going again. But because I was trying to go "all natural" they started me off very slowly. Within 20 minutes I went from a 6 to my water breaking on it's own, to having the baby! Yeah, the doc didn't even make it. I had 7 awesome nurses deliver Madi. My mother and mother-in-law didn't even make it out of the room. And you know what, at that point, I didn't even care. So for them Happy Mother's Day! What a relief to have it over with. MaCrae is adjusting very slowly, but with little time right now, I will update you with more details later.
