On January 20, 2015 we went to Norman, Oklahoma to welcome Hollis into the world. We got there at 6 am and they got things going soon after. I was already in labor and dilated to a 5 when we got there. I only had the Pitocin until I was dilated to a 7. I had my water broken around 11:30 and got an epidural right after. The epidural took away the pain for a few minutes and then the pain came rushing back. At 12:30 I did a few "practice" pushes and at 12:48 Hollis Shane Dill came into the world! 8 pounds 20 inches of pure perfection!
With Remington the epidural blocked all the pain, but with Hollis I felt everything! And you know what, I actually prefer the feeling. I felt so accomplished and proud that I had been able to get through the worst pain in my life.
And now for all the pictures!
The next three are our favorites that the hospital took. Unfortunately they are really expensive.
So we recreated them :)
