20 1/2 inches
On Saturday February 14th (being 4 days overdue) I starting having contractions every couple of minutes. Of course this was at 2:00 am I woke Erik up and we headed to the hospital. After determining I was in fact in early labor I was admitted and we settled in for the long haul. My progression was good at first, received the epidural after a few hours of agony and was well on my way. However, things started to slow they kicked up the pitocin and still after hours I had very little progression and the epidural was wearing off. I was told my chances of a c-section were increasing. I was disappointed but still hopeful. Finally after 20 hours of labor the doctor determined the baby was just not going to fit through my pelvis. So I was prepped for surgery and in less than 45 min at 10:39 pm on February 14, little Cohen was born healthy weighing 8 pounds 8 ounces!We are so happy and so blessed to have Cohen here safe and healthy.
