Finally found out we have a boy!!! My rainbow baby, Ares Alexander Behzadi, came a little early. Delivered at 38w + 2 days on 3/21 @ 12:24am, EDD 4/02. Felt moderate contractions on 3/20 @ 1:45am lasting just over 5 mins apart for about 20 mins, went to the bathroom and saw blood on my liner and in toilet so decided to go to the hospital. Got to hospital at 2:30am am and was 2 cm but since I was having regular contractions lasting 4-5 mins apart they decided to admit me. It was a slow and long labor. They started me on pitocin around 7am since my contractions were not getting closer. Decided to get epidural around 12pm but they made my contractions stop so they increased my pitocin. Didn't reach 10cm until 7pm but baby was still too high. Finally around 11pm I was able to start pushing. Pushed for about 1.5 hours before baby finally entered our world after almost 23 hours of labor. I was exhausted but he is so worth it.
