Baby Allison

Allison Nicole Potter

10/13/10 1:38 AM

8 lbs 15 oz 19 inches long

On October 12th we went to my 39 week check up with Dr B. While we were there he told us I was dilated to a 3 and 80% effaced. Dr B informed me that he would be leaving to out go out of town the following night and that if I wanted him to be there when I had the baby that I would need to be induced that day. We decided that we would go ahead with being induced. We got a call from the hospital telling us to come in at that afternoon. We are glad we went in when we did because she was so big and a week early.



I was in labor for 10 hours and pushed for 30 minutes. It took me a while to dilate to a 5 but once I got that far the delivery went really fast.



I am so glad that I had the worlds best dad with me to deliver our sweet baby. I couldn't have done it without his love and support.

Jason came later that day and got to see his sister for the first time.

I feel very blessed to have the two beautiful children. I love the sweet spirit that they bring into my life. I couldn't imagine life without them.
