Kogan Jestin Garcia!
It was the luck of the irish on St Patties day... ok well it was just the kindness of Dr. Newman to induce me at 39 weeks and it just happend to be this green wearing holiday! Our reservation was at 4 am so after an hour of sleep tuesday night we headed into the hospital. 
I got all ready and set up and started out with a medication to help thin and ripen the cervix and 4 hrs later they started me on pitosin. I spent the majority of the morning and afternoon walking, rolling around on a medicine ball, and walking the halls, I had consistent contractions that gradually got more intense. I dilated to a 3 when the Dr decided to break my water, and that's when the ball really got rolling... Contractions got really painful and so I decided to get my epidural about a hour later, and when I was checked right after I was all hooked up I was a 5,
I was still having pains so the anesthesiologist had to give me another dose. Not only 50 mins later I was complete and ready to start pushing. I was so so so numb which was kinda inconvenient, I hated not being able to control my legs, but they weren't expecting me to progress that quickly. I only pushed for maybe 15 mins and our handsome baby Kogan was brought into the world. I couldn't believe my eyes... Xander has a twin! :) Nothing can describe the feeling of having a child, only the tears of joy rolling down my cheeks could explain. He was a tiny 6 lbs 10 oz, 19 1/4 inches long born at 4:48pm.
