My due date was Monday, November 11, and much to my dismay, I went in for my check-up, still 4 cm dilated and not going into labor. We scheduled my induction for that Thursday and I went home knowing that we were not going to meet our little girl until then. Early the next morning, around 2am, I woke up to use the restroom and noticed that I was having contractions that were close together. I decided to stay up for a little bit and time them, but I was not getting my hopes up because I had done this so many times already. For the next two hours the contractions kept coming 6-8 minutes apart and they were getting stronger. I finally woke Scott up thinking this may actually be the real deal. We called the Doctor around 5am and she said to come to the hospital, so I called my Mom to come to our house and stay with Sophia. By 6am, I was showered, packed, and ready to deliver this baby! We arrived at the hospital at 6:30 on the special date of 11-12-13 and Savannah Elizabeth was born at 10:37 am after pushing for only 2 contractions. She weighed 7lbs 9oz, was 19.5 in long, and absolutely perfect.
