Labor story!

Wednesday my mom & I went grocery shopping & I kept telling her I was having a lot of pressure, more than normal & it didn't feel right. I went home & tried to rest some but that night I started having contractions that had me up about every 15 minutes so Thursday morning when my husband got up for work I told him I was going to the ER. I woke mom up to go with me, when I got there they checked me & I was only dilated a fingertip with contractions every 6-8 minutes but they weren't consistent so they sent me home. Got home & tried to rest, eventually they got so bad I got in a shower to see if that would help but it didn't so I asked my husband to time them. They were 4 minutes apart so u told him to go get my mom & she had to help me out of the shower & help me get dressed. She brought me to the hospital at 8pm & when they checked me at 9:30 I was 3cm dilated, at 11 I was 6cm so they started my epidural & at 1:30 I was at 9 so I called my husband to tell him to come to the hospital. I started pushing around 3:30 & Carter Bryant was born at 5:05am on Friday.
