Sorry for not updating, can you believe it, the hospital didn't have the internet!
Everything went perfect! I went in at 9am then they checked the baby some and checked my cervix, which was only 1cm dilated so at about 10:45 they put a tablet in my cervix to get me started. I got checked again just after 3pm and I was dilated to 4cm! So the midwife(Who was wonderful btw!) broke my water and I started getting loads of very painful contractions on top of each other and with out any pain meds. At 4:06pm March 10th my little baby GIRL Alissa was born! She was perfect! Little small, 6pounds and 3ounces and 18inches long so there was nothing wrong at all! And as a added bonus, she didn't tear me at all so no stitches! All that worry for no reason! The midwife even said because all it took was one tablet that she would have came on her own very soon. Big brother even came to visit her, at first he cried, I guess because he didn't know what to think or know how to react. After a little bit though he was very happy and petting Alissa.
We spent the night in the hospital because I had problems breastfeeding my son and we wanted extra help. Seems I once again have problems with breastfeeding but not as bad as with my son. Because I have inverted nipples and Alissa is such a great sucker they was pulled out too much too soon and I am in major pain and so until they heal fully I have to give them small breaks here and there and FF(By spoon) but they said it shouldn't take too long. Luckily she is great at latching on and sucks perfect so it's just a matter of my poor nipples being able to handle it.
We just got home so I have a lot of unpacking to do and other things that need to get done so I'll upload pics soon.
