Parker's birth story and pics (10lbs 15oz!!) **PIC HEAVY**

Went in to the hospital on Sunday to be induced. When I got the epidural it only worked for have my body and as soon as they gave me a second dose my legs instantly became warm and it felt like a javelin went through my heart and came out my back. My back hurt worse than my contractions did and it felt like I was having a heart attack. The doctors said they had no idea what was going on and were afraid to do anything. So they pulled out the epidural and I was all natural for a while. So my chest, back, and contraction all were a 20 on the pain scale and I begged for them to do something so they finally gave me a spinal that would only last an hour and right when it wore off I was at 10cm and ready to push. So I pushed and pushed and puke and puked in natural labor pushing for 2 and a half hours. They checked me like 20 times I swear when I was pushing because they could see I was pushing so hard I'm sure my eyes looked like they were going to pop out and saw NO progress. At that point I told them to give me a C section and they agreed. I was in the operating room and when they gave me the spinal again I was pretty much out. I was out but still awake. Parker was born at 5:37pm 10lbs 15oz 22 inches long on Sunday and I was induced at 11am on Saturday. He is a BIG baby and the doctors did not catch it I was the talk of L&D the whole time I was there. People who met me said "Oh your the one with the 11lb baby!?"  It was so long and painful but he's a doll. He's my little chubbster and me and Daddy love him with all our heart and soul. <3
