Around 10:30 am the nurse returned for another flip and asked how I was feeling. I know my body and I knew it was time but fear had rendered me speechless. As she approached my door I finally blurted out that it is time to push behind my sobbing! She came over to console me and stated I was still only at 8 and she supposed she would check me again but wanted me to sleep.
I was right of course... It IS TIME! In fact SO time that her head was more than crowned and coming out... She called the OB and advised me "DO NOT PUSH"! The bed wasn't set up and the Doc was AT HOME! Seriously? There is no time for this! Dr. Etten showed up and we delivered Avery with the mattress folded down since this wasn't a delivery bed! I pushed one time and there was Miss Avery Jane at 10:46am February 25th 2010 she weighed 6lbs 14 oz and was 20" long. She was quiet and sweet!
