7:30am: On our way across the street to Banner Gateway for the induction of our little angel.
The soon to be mom!
Epidurals are awesome! The entire induction was going great and I was progressing really fast... until the pushing began. She would not come out. The doctor was literally about to wheel me away for a C-section after 3 hours and 15 min of pushing because they thought that my hips were too narrow. Finally on the last push out she came, doing the splits, head and foot out at the same time. No wonder it took so long!Hallie Pearl Hutchison

Perfect :)
They ended up using the vacuum to suck little Hallie out, which my doctor said he NEVER did on diabetic babies. Throughout the last hour of pushing, he sat with his head down, his hands crossed, and eyes closed in between pushes. He is LDS and the best doctor ever, and I knew he was praying about what to do. I was so frustrated and praying super hard that I wouldn't have to get a C-section. At the last minute he decided to use the vacuum anyways and it all worked out perfectly. Thank heavens for answered prayers and inspired doctors. I was so sad that I couldn't hold Hallie right away. I was bleeding way too much and they had to check out her foot and leg after her fancy entrance. It was so scary. Eric and I had to hold my stomach instead of our baby while they tried to stop my bleeding. Thankfully everything worked out and it ended up being a great faith building experience for both of us. Eric was the best coach ever. He stayed by my side through it all.
The Hutchison Family!
Our precious gift from above!
Home from the hospital. Our new adventure really begins!
One week old already! :( Don't grow up Hallie!
We were lucky enough to catch Hallie smiling.
Isn't she precious! She's the most beautiful baby I have ever seen! I feel so blessed! I never thought being a mother would be so amazing!

She is gorgeous! Seriously one of the most beautiful newborns ever!Good work you guys! I'm glad everything ended up being ok. It can be very scary when they are telling you what is going on and you are thinking "I just want my baby to come out and I want them to be healthy!" I ended up having to go the c-section route. I did cry when I found out (after 4 hours of pushing, so I feel your pain) In the end I actually liked having a c-section. Anyway Congrats again. You will love being parents!
