Well, I must say, my labor was much easier this time around. I arrived at Memorial Hermann at 7am (was 4cm dilated), started the process at 9am, was told that I was dilated to 10cm at around 12:30pm ... the nurse then called Dr. Westmoreland and told her to rush over from Westheimer Plumbing (she was shopping for bathroom fixtures ... too funny), started pushing a little after 1pm, and then Lacie Kate Watson arrived at 1:19pm. She weighed 7.10lbs, was 20in and an absolute beauty. Dr. Westmoreland said that she never thought I would go that fast, and she told me if I ever go for baby #3, be prepared for labor to go even faster (WOW)!!!
It was a wonderful experience, and of course I had the best coach ever by my side ... Wade. My Mom, Wade's Mom and my sister-in-law Courtney were also in the room.
Recovery was also very easy, which I am grateful for, considering I have two babies so close in age.
