LABOR STORY!!! 😍😍 For those interested... Last weekend was the absolute worst for me... between back pain, pelvic pressure and BHs I just didn't know if I was coming or going. Sunday came and my husband had spoken with his mom who was concerned and wanted to come and stay with us just in case I went into labor. I lost a little of my mucus plug that morning so I decided that I needed to walk or dance or something to try and help things along. My husband and I went for a long walk that afternoon but I didn't see much from it. Then that night I walked for about 20 mins on the treadmil. Still NOTHING. Monday came and my MIL had some preparing to do for the holiday so she went home and was gonna come back the following day she made sure to tell me before she left DONT U HAVE THAT BABY TONIGHT! I was almost sure that I wouldn't lol.... But the BHs were still there and my body was just more and more uncomfortable. I cooked dinner for my family that night ate dinner myself and decided to take a really warm bath. Turned the jets on in the tub and put my headphones in. I sat there for about 2 hours no shame at all. Anyway my husband and I were watching TV downstairs but has decided to go to bed. I sat up at the tip of the couch for about 2 mins. Felt what I though was baby kicking me... so hard that it made me jump up from the couch my husband said what happen did he kick you? I was like oh god that hurt so bad.... but I could stand up completely then cane the fluids..... My water had broken and there was no stopping it. I still couldn't stand I was bent over walking to the bathroom. I saw it in my husband a face he was panacking he didn't know what to do. Anyway so I'm sitting on the toilet and the first person I call is my MIL she knew why I was calling before I even said hello. Only she doesnt drive and it was 12am.... I called the midwife next to let her know that I would be seeing her soon. And that my baby had had a bowel movement which I knew had happened bcuz my water was a pea green color. Well we were kind of stuck bcuz our girls were sleeping my MIL doesn't drive I'm in labor and we had no one to stay with the girls. My husband had to go and get his mom 25mins away...... He dropped me off at the hospital basically left me at the emergency room and he and the girls left to get my MIL. Up in labor and delivery they put me in Triage.... I had to call a nurse like MAAM MY WATER BROKE AN HOUR AGO I CAN BARLEY STAND AND U ARE DEFINETLEY NOT GETTING A URINE SAMPLE. Send someone to help me please bcuz I can hardley stand. By the my contractions were unbearable and all I wanted was the epidural. The nurse ran in saw me barley hanging on with fluids running down me legs and demanded that I got in the bed so she could check for dilation. She checked me and said oh god we have to move her. She's a 7 almost 8.... well my midwife met us in the hallway on the way to the delivery room she checked me a second time and said I was at a 6. I asked right then PLEASE can I have the epidural. But I had to get lab work done before I could get it. But she did give some pain meds in my IV that were amazing but didn't last long AT ALL it wore off in like 20mins and I couldn't get again for an hour.... I swear ever minute of that hour felt like 20! And I cried in anticipation of every contraction. So 5 mins before I could get the next does I was told that I could get the epidural. I was ecstatic but still had to wait about 5 mins. The contractions were about 1 1/2 mins apart and I couldn't take it anymore. She had to stop what she was doing every time I had a contraction... I just wanted it in so that I could feel less pain. My husband walked in in the middle of me getting the epidural. I was so relieved. It kicked in and I was a happy camper. 8cm and it was about 4 in the morning. I got checked again a hour later And 9cm. 30mins went by and I started to feel pressure. Called in the nurse and they prepared for pushing. I was talking to the midwife and stopped mid sentence bcuz I felt myself poop... Sure enough the baby was there and I had in fact pooped myself..... 30mins later and I had my baby boy in my arms. Perfect. He didn't swallow any fluids he had big healthy cries and all was right with the world. No scars and no tearing. My husband made it I got my epidural and it was 6:30 in the am and my Boy was here. One crazy night nothing like I had envisioned it. Kinda of like how labor goes in the movies.

Everything happened soooo fast!!! I thought that I would be doing it alone when my husband left me at the hospital. I knew when o saw the color that he had pooped... but before then I only thought it happened if they were overdue... I guess not. It was the craziest experience for me.... @levleah

@caseclosed2015, I kinda hope mine goes just as fast! Well... not so fast that I can't get an epidural. I'm so glad your husband made it in time!
