Well my daughter is 2 months old but I never posted my labor story lol so here goes. I had been having period cramps on my belly and back for a week. I would wake up with cramps expecting to see blood that's how bad they were. On June 23rd I was walking a lot to try and speed up labor I was going to be induced and I wanted to avoid induction. Well needless to say, it worked lol the cramps were getting really bad. On June 24th I had my last ob appt that morning at 10am. Well I woke up at 9 am to get ready, as I was walking to the bathroom I felt water dripping down my leg. I thought I peed myself, until I sneezed and couldn't hold the liquid in and it was coming out from another entrance. That's how I knew my water broke. I told my mom and she was trying to rush me but I needed to shower and get ready. I wasn't getting contractions too bad. I arrived at the hospital at 10:30am and things were going pretty slow. I kept waiting for the contractions to get stronger I was dilated at a 2 when I got there. By 6pm I was only at a 6 and contractions still weren't getting strong. My nurse asked me if i was planning on getting the epidural and I really wanted to avoid it if I could. I had an epidural with my first, and I wanted to try natural labor. Well around 10pm my doctor came in to check me since I wasn't making any progress, turned out my water was broken but not fully so he broke the rest of my bag. They put me on pitocin to help my contractions increase. Oh boy did they, I went from a 6 around 10pm to 10 by 12am my contractions were unbearable I really didn't think I was going to be able to push with out pain meds. Well by 1:20 I was ready to push. Pushed 3 times and by 1:26 am on June 25th my beautiful daughter was born. Compared to my first born, this labor went by so fast I pushed for 2 hours with my son, so this time was a piece of cake lol.

!!!!LABOR STORY!!!! Saturday at 1AM, lost my mucus plug/bloody show, and I was freaking out! A couple of hours later I had cramping, but felt like BH just a little stronger. They came and went, but felt stronger with each hour. Didn't sleep that whole night! I called the midwife at my hospital and told her I lost it and was having really bad cramping and she told me I was fine and was prob just having BH contractions. The next day I was having what I thought were strong BH contractions every 10-15 mins, but the new City Target had opened across the st from my MiL house in Fenway, (go Red Sox! ⚾ ) and I had to coupon (it is a big coupon week!) so, I went to Target and couponed, hurled over in pain every 10 minutes, coupons in hand 😂😂😢 Went home, contractions were really intense and came every 3-4mins, so around 3am I called the hospital again and said I'm having really bad pains, and I can barely walk. They take my breath away and I think I'm in labor. Again, she said I would be screaming and unable to be so "chatty" if I was in labor, and to stay home and go to sleep. Obviously I couldn't sleep with these killer contractions every 2-3 mins now! Monday morning, July 27 contractions were now every 1-2 minutes, intense like someone was rilling out my insides, I tried rocking on the glider in the nursery, tried soaking in the bathtub, but I was in tears from the pain and from lack of sleep for two nights now, so I told hubby if these aren't labor pains I'm not waiting until I'm actually in labor. Let's to go the hospital and get the Epidural (my plan was to go natural) and he's like ok let's go. Arrived at the hospital around 10:15, got admitted, sat around moaning while the nurses told me relax, you'll catch your breath, we will get you a room in a minute. Meanwhile I'm in a wheelchair doubled over barely able to breathe. I thought I was going to pass out from the pain! Got into a room, they listened to baby's heartbeat, and midwife came in to check for dilation. "Oh my god I don't even feel much cervix. You're 9cm dilated honey let's go push!" I almost passed out at that point! I told her I can't do this it hurts soooo bad. But we got into a room, I pushed for the longest ten minutes of my life and out he came! I tore and got stitches, but not from end to end thank god. Still sore and uterus is cramping but everything else is going well. Breastfeeding is so hard! We will get there though! Third night of no sleep so don't mind the bags under my eyes hahaha And yes I am going to hunt down that darn midwife who told me to stay at home cuz I was fine and not in labor! Smh I had a CVS coupon trip planned for yesterday, but I'll take Ezra any day! So glad I pulled through with my plan though. It feels so empowering! Not saying next time I'd do it again 😂😂😂
