November 14, 2007 we arrived at the hopital at 8:00 pm to get induced or to have a c-section we weren't sure which would happen. Little baby girl wanted to give me trouble and decided to be breech the whole pregnancy. So we decided to try and have the doctor turn her before proceeding to a c-section. Dr. Dewey arrived at the hosptial at 10:30 pm (he had been at a temple session and couldn't get there until then but didn't want to wait any longer for fear of going into labor on my own). So, they gave me lovely shot that stung like a bugger to stop my contractions. Then Dr. Dewey laid me back put a bunch of blue gel on my big belly and very carefully turned her. Now we just had to hope that she didn't turn back. He broke my water, started me on pit and soon after I got my epidural (a girls best friend).
Then we worked on sleeping and laboring. Around 4:00 am here she came. Now when they pulled her out she was covered with the vernix and when they laid her in the newborn bed to clean her off her legs flopped open like a frog from being breech. Everyone got quit a chuckle out of that.
