On Thursday at my doctor's appointment the choice for an induction was made to get our bundle of joy here a little faster. We were set to arrive at the hospital at 7 am the next morning. We had 16 hours to finish packing our hospital bags, enjoy our last meal together, and attempt to get a little sleep.
We arrived at the hospital and pitocin was started around 8 am. Things started to pick up slowly, but nothing too intense. Around noon, Dr. Walker came by the see how things were progressing. As soon as she walked in the room my water broke and that's when active labor began. By 5:45 pm I was ready to start pushing and our lives were forever changed a little over an hour later. At 6:51 pm Callie Rebecca Joyner took her first breath weighing 6 pounds 8 ounces and 19.25 inches long. It was love at first sight!
