The Birth of Bronco

I don't even know where to start!  This birth couldn't have gone any better.  It was a MILLION times easier then the birth of Kypton.  It was everything I could have imagined, and more! It was simply PERFECT!

At my 37 week appt.  I was dialated to a 3, and 70% effaced( moms will know what that means)  so I was def. getting ready for this baby to come.  My doctor scraped my membranes a little bit, to help me make some more progress.  At 38 weeks I went back in, and was about the same.  My doctor this time scraped my membranes again, but this time my water broke while sitting on his table, at my appt.  So instead of planning on going home, we went straight over to labor and delivery.  All this happened around 830.

So we got over to labor and delivery, got all settled.  Called my mom and Zachs mom to let them know what was going on.  At about 1030 they got my iv going, Pitocin going, and also an antibiotic( i tested Strep B+) Around 145ish the nurse checked me, and I was a 6 and 90%.  So I was thinking it was gonna be a couple more hours or so.  At around 215, I started getting emotional and scared.  I told Zach that I was starting to get uncomfortable, and that I thought I might need to push, to go and get the nurse.

The Nurse came in and checked me, and I was COMPLETE and babies head was close.  So the nurse called my doctor.  My doctor told her that I needed to try and go 20 more min. or so, to make sure I got all of my antibiotic, so that they didn't have to do any blood work on bronco. ( the antibiotic has to be in the body for 4 hours)  So I of course Held through my contractions.  That is NOT a fun feeling! I wanted to push sooo bad!  My doctor finally got there around 240, I pushed through 2 contractions, and little Bronco Zachary was HERE!! It was such a Beautiful Birth, and everything went perfect! 

I will let the pictures speak for themselves!
