this is long but pleass read. I had my little Emma rose on April 13th I was in labor for two days straight had contractions 3-4 minutes apart for two days and the first day I went to the hospital they sent me home when they are suppose to keep you because how close the contractions we're. went in that night at 4 in the morning and almost got sent home again while still having contractions but closer together. finally another doctor saw me and saw how much pain I was in and decided to break my water at 5pm. she was born at 5:53 pm. I got lucky I didn't rip I didn't need stitches I didn't need anything. I just want all you mother's to know that you can do it. don't get discouraged it will all be worth it. in the end and if you think something is wrong please go in don't feel stupid for going in back to back. you all can do it mommas
