On October 4th, 2013 Noah Michael Pace was born. We went into labor at Wesley Medical Center at around 5:30 in the morning, thrilled with excitement! The moment we had waited for was finally here. After two hours of anticipation, we finally got into a hospital room, I changed my gown and put my game face on.
Time seemed to be passing pretty quickly during labor, but by no means was it a fast process. I had debated on getting an epidural for the longest time, but after feeling those strong contractions, I caved in. Advice for those future pregnant women--get an epidural! It was a world of difference. I was finally fully dilated at about 7:30 that night. The nurses pushed all of these tables into the room and it finally hit me that I was about to be a mom. Finally at about 8:00, it was time to start pushing. It was such a beautiful process that words truly cannot describe it. Noah Michael was born at 9:30 pm, at 8 lbs 4 ounces, 21 1/2 inches long. I'm truly blessed to have a healthy baby boy and my life has already changed so much for the better.
