Birth Story Time 😍
So contractions started at 1:30 am on 09/01
I kept track thru out the night..they were about 10 mins apart give or take. Got up around 10 & timed them again (still about 6-10mins apart) called the midwife (went to voicemail) they called back around 1030, told me if my water didn't break or I wasn't bleeding to drink water, eat and don't come until they're consistently 5 mins apart for an hour...around 11:15 I called again (voicemail) they were 2,3,4 mins apart. At 11:30 I said fuck it, got dressed, had my husband put the bags in the car, Left around 12, got to the hospital around 1230, the nurse checked me and I was 5cm!
I kept having contractions (was laying on my left side) they were about to check me again and I said I feel like I'm leaking, she's right there. Sure was! A few pushes and screams later, she was born at 2:37. No epidural! I had almost 2nd degree tears so I got stitched and they gave me some medicine and man I could not keep my eyes open for nothing!
Feel free to ask whatever questions 😊
Labor starts from the time your first contraction starts.?
Without epidural.!! I wish I was that strong lol and that was a lot of hours..
@answeredprayer16, I'm so glad you got to have the birth experience you wanted 😊🤗 and now your sweet girl is here. So happy for you & your husband!! Hope the tearing heals quickly!👍🏽💕🎀🌸

My triplets were born via emergency c-section.... on Monday I had an appt with my ob at 6pm and he said I was still 2cm dilated, then I went home and was having servere pain that came and go and would wake me up from sleep, they were coming from 2 to 17 min apart, and I couldn't walk, and I had an extreme urge to pee, and that was new, so my mom came and took me to the hospital, and they hooked me and the babies up to the monitors and I wasn't contracting as much as I had thought, come to fi...
Ok guys labor story:
My water broke about 10:30 last night. I put on a pad and monitored the leaking for an hour and about 12 I went to the hospital. I was admitted an hour later and they put my IV in and and took blood all that good stuff lol. By this I was having some mild contractions. Around 4 they started my pitocin and the contractions got really strong and were coming about 2 mins apart I asked for pain meds and the nurse put something in my IV that made me woozy it worked for about 45 m...
Kinda hard to time these but they arnt that painful but about 7 mins apart

I just want to share my ring I got today. It's from a company called ashes into glass.
I called my OB clinic and I was told to leave a voicemail about my concern and a nurse will get back to me... Wow.. Great system. Just keep me freaking out over here.....
ok....I was in the hospital with bad contractions for two hours 😒 even still, your first baby usually takes the longest. @jaunty
