Alright ive been meaning to do this but forgot.

My labor and delivery story: I went to my 39th week ob appointment and got checked. i was told i was at 1.5cm and 80% effaced. on tuesday may 10th. i was told they wanted me to come back next week and then we would figure out if i needed to be induced or not. i was kind of disappointed because i hadn't made any progress. so we went home and had dinner and laid down at 8 because my husband had to be up for work at 430. i woke up at 1230am like i did always because i had to pee. i stretched and it felt like i had not woke up in time and peed on my self.. i went to the bathroom and wiped and it kept coming. so i wiped Again and it was clear didn't smell like urine. so i grabbed a pad and woke my husband up because my water had broke lol. went to the dr got checked and confirmed it was my water. i was hooked up to a monitor and i didn't start having contractions until 3am which woke me up. i was told i wouldn't get an epidural until i was 4cm.i was given the medicine to help my contractions get stronger. contractions got stronger and more painful for 2 hours. and i was finally 4cm. got my epidural and took a nap for an hour or so. nurse came in checked me and when i was 10cm she woke me up. and i started practicing pushing before the dr got there. after an hour and a half of pushing and about 18 hours of labor 😳 my daughter was born may 11th at 8:09pm weighing 7lbs 3oz 19 inches long and the happiest baby ive known. ❤🎀
