Hey everybody Terell Donte a.k.a JT is here!!! So he wasn't born in June like people thought he would but I still want to be apart of this group if you all don't mind.
He was born July 5th at 1:06 am. He was 9lbs. 7oz and he was 21 inches long! My induction started Friday night with a jell they put in on my cervix because I was only a centimeter dilated and had a very long hard cervix. They let me go home to get basically only 5 hours of broken sleep (that Friday went in at 9 left the hospital at 1:30). I had to call L&D to see when I was to come in for my induction at 7 am Saturday morning. They told us to come in at 7:30 we didn't get there until 8:15 and the induction started at 8:30, the jell helped a lot because I was 70-80% effaced by the time we started the induction but things didn't move as fast as I wanted I was stayed 1cm and 70-80% effaced for about 4 hours so we didn't expect things to go quickly. I finally got to 3cm but stayed that way for about 5 hours after that I was 4- 5cm (12 hours into labor) dilated so they told me that it looked like I was going to be in for the long hall and he was probably going to be born sometime the next morning so they said I could either try and continue naturally and may need to get a c sec because I would be to exhausted to push or I could get an epidural and deliver vaginally so I got the epidural 4 hours later I thought the epidural wasn't working anymore so they gave me more I still felt pain so they checked me and I was fully dilated and ready to push. I pushed for 25 minutes and bam JT was born. First words out of my mouth was "dang he is huge!" JT was worth all the pain!
