Daxton Ryan Herring!

November 19th 2011 was a very special day for  us! That is the day that my baby boy decided to make his appearance in this world! We were staying with my parents at the time because we had just moved back from Washington and hadn't found our own place yet so we were up in Heber. The day was pretty much like any other until about 11:00 that night when I woke up to my water having broken! We had to drive all the way down to Provo to the hospital because that is where my doctor delivers so I was not looking forward to the trip. However, even though my water had broken my labor did not start.

We made it to UVRMC and checked in and they came in to check things and discovered that I was not having ANY contractions... They decided to let me wait for a bit and see if my labor started on it's own before inducing me. Well a little while later they came back and still nothing... so they decided I needed to have some pitocin to start my labor. They started me at about 12:30 and then came back and took it off hoping that my body would take over. No such luck... so they started it again. They did this three times before they finally decided at about 4:00 that they were just going to have to leave me on it.

Well after about 9 or so hours my baby boy was not moving down like he was supposed to. The doctor came in to see what was going on and decided that he was sideways and they needed to get him turned so that he would keep moving.... OUCH... That hurt like crazy.. but it did the trick. After only another 30 minutes or so my baby boy was born!
