We went to the hospital on Friday, March 18th to be induced to have Max. It was a long labor, lasting 14 hours because Max was turned the wrong way. It was not only long, but also hard because my epidural stopped working right when we needed to push. I pushed the "natural" way for two hours before they even realized that the epidural was even out of my back. We took a 30 minute break from pushing, got some pain medicine (not an epidural), and begin pushing again. I was afraid of using the vacuum or the forceps to help pull him out. I was determined to do it myself, and I did. It was a natural labor, and it was worth it! Max was born 30 minutes later, at 5:34am on March 19th. Tyler and I both couldn't believe how much he looked like Leo. He was also so calm! We love our little blonde boy :-)
