Meeting Cassidy

February 28, 2014 came and went, still no baby girl. Our doctor scheduled me for an induction on Thursday March 6, where they would give me medicine (Pitocin) to make me go into labor. We arrived at the hospital maternity ward that evening to begin the process, which proved to be long and painful. After being on medication all night, still no baby. The whole day Friday some mild discomfort, still no baby. The doctors decided to administer another medication that REALLY got the process going. After all night and all early morning of being in agonizing pain and only 4 cm dilated, I was given the epidural. Only after 10 minutes I was fully dilated and told to start pushing. Jimmy on one side of me and nurses on the other, 30 minutes of pushing and Cassidy was finally here!! She was born at 9:08 AM, with big blue eyes. Needless to say we fell in love.
