Audra Elizabeth Locke

Audra decided to listen to her momma and not make her appearance until after the 7th of October. The doctor decided to induce me on the 10th of October because he was worried she was going to be too big. So we headed to St. Mark's on Monday morning at 9am. At 1130am the doctor broke my water and than about an hour later I got my epidural. They had to keep switching me around in the bed because I wasn't progressing because she kept falling ASLEEP. Apparently this llittle girl likes to sleep. Finally about 330 pm the nurse decided to have me try and sit almost straight up with my legs crossed. Man did that work. About an hour later, it was time to push. I pushed thru one contraction and they called the doctor in. One contraction push later and her head was here and than one more push and her shoulders were out. I was in AWE!! Audra was born at 457pm on 10/10. After Carter's delivery I couldn't believe how fast it was. Our little girl was here and we were in love! She was a big girl at 9 lbs 2 oz. (the dr had guessed 9 lbs over a month ago).
