Welcome our sweet baby boy Dominic! He is truly the sweetest little boy ever! So far he loves to sleep sleep sleep! I started the induction on Thursday afternoon. The labor wasn't too bad until Friday at about 10:00 when the contractions started to get almost unbearable LOL. I was stuck at 5 cm for a long long time and then all of a sudden around 12 pm I jumped to 8 cm. The resident called my OB doctor and by the time she arrived 20 minutes later I was 10 cm and ready to push. I only pushed for 9 mins (thank God!) and our sweet little miracle arrived! They placed him on my belly and he peed all over us! Another blessing! I will forever cherish pee as it means beautiful working kidneys! The pediatrician checked him over and said he is perfect! The only obstacle we are currently facing now is some jandice. I am currently waiting for a bili blanket to be delivered that we will have to use for 24 hours to get the bilirubin level down. Then we go for a repeat blood test tomorrow to see if that helps. I hope so! I cannot stand watching him get his little foot poked and scraped! :-( Hopefully this will make him all better and life will be perfect :-) Makayla is being a fantastic big sister too! Such a big helper! Just a little rough at times, but we are working on being 'gentle' LOL :-)
