since everyone is posting birth stories I'll share mine...
I was due Nov 23rd 2015... but on the 22nd all day it felt like I was Peeing my pants and being a ftm I had no idea what was what... at around 8pm that night my on call ob told me to go to labor and delivery... when I got there they checked me in and I went to an er room and was hooked up to monitors... I went to the restroom and came back out and fluid ran down my legs... the ob in the er told me basically that I didn't know what I was talkin about and it probably wasn't amniotic fluid and she was gonna send me home... the bitch argued with me and tried to tell me how I felt so I snapped on her and she never came back to my room... finally I got to a labor room... they started me on pitosin and I was only dilated to 1cm... 24 hrs in my ob broke my water with a plastic hook and then the real pain started... I dilated to 4cm and got my epi... thank god! and by 35hrs in I was dilated to 6cm... Dr came back and checked me 45 min later and my cervix had started swelling so I had lost some progress was down to 5cm... she told me I needed a cesarean and I bawled my eyes out for a half hour... finally let them do it... and at 10:08 am on November 24th my sweet layne daniel made his entrance weighing in at 8 lbs 10.5oz and 20 in long...

I had to have a c section as well for the same reason but also my daughters head was swelling
