Nobody brought Aaron his In N' Out burger for having a new baby so we went through the drive through on the way home.

We arrived at the hospital around 10:30 p.m. when I was scheduled to be induced.  After monitoring the baby and checking me they started I.V. pitocin at 11:40 p.m.  I had my first contraction at midnight.  The midwife was supposed to come in between 1:00 and 2:00 to see how I was doing.  I told the nurse to check me again at about 12:40 a.m.  She immediately began preparing the room for delivery.  She stayed by my side and ended up being the one to deliver me at 1:10 a.m.  I never even met the midwife.  An OB came in after the baby arrived and stitched me up.  The nurse said it was the fastest induction she had ever seen.  I was thrilled to have it over so quickly.
