My leap year baby

Little Carson is here. When we arrived at the hospital I was already 4 cm. dilated. We started the pit. at 1:30 and had contraction every 5 min. by 2:00. Then the Dr. came to break my water and my pit. was increased. They jumped to one every min. one lasting 6 min. AHHHH. We called in the nurse and told her how regular they were. By the time the anesthesiologist came there was no breaks in between. I told the nurse he was coming so they tried to hurry and put the epidural in. Two epidurals later no luck, the baby was coming. They quickly rolled me over and the Dr. came running in. At 4:49 Carson Curtis Goodwin was born.
