Blanca was induced on Saturday morning, and she labored peacefully during the day, into the night, and into the following morning. We stayed in close communication the entire time, and despite our fears that we might miss it, Duane kept us updated on her progress and assured us he’d make sure we had plenty of time to arrive at UCH. He did such an awesome job communicating, and sure enough, he reached out with the perfect amount of time (which doesn’t always happen!) Rebecca arrived at UCH and Blanca was ready to start pushing. The sun was beginning to set and the light pouring into the room was so beautiful - illuminating not only Blanca but her entire circle of support.
