harrison arrived on 11.5.11 at 2:06pm.
after trying just about every trick in the book to get my labor started on its own, i ended up being scheduled to be induced. i checked in to the hospital at 7am. i really did not want any pitocin, so instead, i asked if they could just break my water and see what will happen. well, the dr. broke my water at 10am and 4 hours later, harrison arrived. I think a combination of being very late and no epidural made a very quick (and painful!) delivery! but he's perfect, and in the end, everything worked out the way i wanted.
