In part 1, I mentioned that we planned for a home birth but it didn't happen because I was 16 days past due.
Today, I'll share with you the details of my induced labor - pitocin drip and the option for epidural, which I did not want…
Lots of things happened - mixed emotions, intense experiences, conflicts about natural vs. medicated birth.
Amazing and beautiful things in the end. Enjoy!
