I was pretty determined to give myself and my kid every shot at a natural birth. Not that I am a hard core naturalist, or that I judge or anything. I just wanted the experience this time around that I didn't get with my first baby. Sophie was induced a week early because I became toxemic. It wasn't pleasant. She was not ready and neither was I. I digress...
But 2 weeks post due date my doctor put his foot down. No more waiting for me. I wasn't progressing past 4cm no matter how many things I tried (and I tried almost everything). It was due day...
So after a relatively shorter (compared to the days of labor I was in with Sophie) labor John was born.
