Sierra Noelle Baumgartner Born February 18th 2010 at 6:03 am, weighing 8lb 11oz 21 1/2 inches long. She came one day before her due date. This was deffinatley not the labor experience I was expecting. We went in around 9:00pm the 17th to be induced, and around 10:30 they induced me, and around midnight a nurse came in and told me I need to start walking around to help the contractions start so I did, I walked for maybe 10 minutes with Patrik up and down the halls and then I needed to be back in my room because my contractions were getting pretty bad. Around 4:00am they gave me a shot to numb the pain a little then they gave me my epidural around 4:30, so i tryed to sleep then around 5:30am they came in to check me and told me and told me I was at a nine, but my body told me I was at a ten because I started pushing, thats when I realized that my epidural wasn't working. I remember I yelled at everyone in the delivery room except my husband and I remember screaming that we were not going to have any more kids, everyone laughed and cryed because they were all laughing at me. The nurses told me to control my breathing over and over so I yelled at them over and over, later Patrick told me that my doctor told everyone that I am usually a pleasant person, I didn't hear him say this, which was probably a good thing. fineally I made the nurses bring me in a mirror because I told them they were lying to me about how good I was doing and how she was almost here. then what felt like 3 hours later which was only 24 minutes later came our little girl, 8lb 11oz, she was perfect. they put her on my belly, I said hi to her and thanked her for coming out of me and Patrick cut the cord and then they took her to clean her off and then I was out, I fell asleep so fast. Belle got to meet her little sister and she didn't know what to think, but now she can't get enough of her. She wants to hold her all the time and hugs on her and gives kisses. My baby Belle isn't a baby any more, she is our big girl.
