Fields Full Quiver: Miley Paige Fields

I went to my regular OB appointment on 1/10/2012, this week I was measuring 4 weeks behind. My OB was a little worried about that but we had been doing weekly ultrasounds to check the amniotic fluid levels (since the levels were low and I needed to be induced with Jackson at 38 weeks) so she was just keeping an eye on things. I could tell almost immediately in the ultrasound that the levels were smaller than the previous week. I said to my DR... the pockets look smaller than last week! She said YES! Let's have a baby! Since I was 39 weeks there was no alarm just time to have the baby! My DR said it was ok to go home... I'm so glad! My mom came to be with the kids and we left for the hospital. We got there around 7 and they got the pitocin going at about 7:45. Once hooked up to the monitors they showed that I was having some contractions, so I probably would of gone into labor that night anyway. The contractions were about 3 minutes apart but weren't very strong, I could still talk through them. The nurse upped the pitocin twice cause I looked to happy she said! LOL! Things were only intense and I had to focus on breathing for about 40 minutes and it was time to push! I pushed for about 5 minutes and Miley was here! She was born at 3:05 am. weighing 6 lbs. 6 oz and 18 inches long.

I tell you what having a baby in the wee hours of the morning messed us up! LOL we had no clue what day or time it was... and was pretty darn tired! That night I think I slept 3 hours. But it was all worth it and it always amazes me how you can function on such little sleep.

So here is our beautiful girl...
