Being Induced

This was a different birth experience for us. Eliza went all the way to her due date. I was put on the "waiting list" to be called to be induced. We got the call at 5:45 am. We arrived at the hospital at 7:05 am. Check in was a slow process and the lady checking us in was unique (I wish I had pictures). We arrived in the room at 8:05 am. I was induced at 9:50 am. It was a slow process of contractions coming and then stopping until tey broke my water at 4 pm. Then Eliza was born just 2 1/2 hours later. If we had not done the induction we might not have had enough time for the needed antibiotics.
