Harlow's Birth...

Harlow was due Sept. 25th, but we decided to induce so we could make sure that everyone would be able to be there. I went to the dr. on Monday the 21st to talk about inducing, and they said the hospital could do it the next day at 7:30 am! What a surprise! That was fast:) My parents and little sister drove over from California that night and Eric's parents and his little sister came up from Tucson. We were so excited and I was more than ready to get her out of me!

Eric and I on our way to the hospital! So excited!!!

This is how I was with contractions before I got the epidural (it even made me throw up every time the contraction would come)...

and this was me after that heavenly drug was stuck in my back...

The entire gang that was able to be in the room when Harlow came (Rod was there too, he took the picture)...

Sammie and Julie decided to bring the pam, just in case we needed to spray a little right before the baby came out:)...

I was so glad that everyone was able to be in the room during birth. After the epidural, I have to say that giving birth isn't too bad at all! I actually really enjoyed the experience and was able to keep a good attitude and stay calm the entire time. Now, if I wasn't able to get an epidural...I know that things would've been a lot different:)
