Sorry so late but here's my birth story .... Friday night 1/13/17 I went to work in pain and surprisingly made it through my shift to get home and lay down ... 2:30am I woke up in excruciating pain and thought it couldn't be labor pains so I sat on the toilet and tried to go back to bed when the pain settled. Getting up again at 3am with the same pain I tried the same method only to sit in the toilet and still feel a huge amount of pressure in my abdominal area and pain. It was now 330am I contacted my sister she instructed me to call the ambulance because she insisted I was in labor .... arriving at the hospital at 4am via ambulance to find out I was in labor and in fact I was already 5cm dilated .... I was given an IV and was admitted , I contacted Dylan's father , my mother and Dylan's grandmother all arriving within an hour i was given an epidural at 5 1/2 cm of dilation.... at 11am I was 8cm dilated but my water was has yet to break at that point by noon I was moved to the room I would deliver in and my water was broken by one of the doctors ... making it to 10cm by 1pm I rested and was condescending giving Dylan time to move down ... by 130 I was crowning and had to push .... during pushing Dylan stopped breathing and I was pressed for time getting him out they then used a vacuum as I pushed and my boy was out by 1:52pm weighing 6 lbs even he came out breathing too fast so the doctors did everything they could to calm Dylan's heart rate , Today we are being discharged and I have a complete healthy baby ❤👨👩👦I'm happy and blessed (real tears) but they are all of joy
I honestly can't wait for the intense pain of contractions, to go in labor and have my husband by my side each step of the way, finally pushing our daughter out info the world just the thought just makes me so emotional and excited I CAN'T WAIT FOR SEPTEMBER ,

!!!!LABOR STORY!!!!
Saturday at 1AM, lost my mucus plug/bloody show, and I was freaking out! A couple of hours later I had cramping, but felt like BH just a little stronger. They came and went, but felt stronger with each hour. Didn't sleep that whole night! I called the midwife at my hospital and told her I lost it and was having really bad cramping and she told me I was fine and was prob just having BH contractions.
The next day I was having what I thought were strong BH contractions every 10-...


Before u become pregnant think of this
Do I want to be uncomfortable as hell for 40-42 weeks?
Do I want to be in horrible pain for up to 14-16 hours even longer
Can I handle pushing a big ass head through my vagina
Can I handle this with no pain meds(sometimes u can't make it in time)
Do I want to go to the hospital 10x before I'm actually in labor.
Because inducing your labor at 32-37 weeks for your own selfish needs or getting a csection to do it the "easy" way is just plain selfish and FYI a...
Still in shock that I pushed my baby out with no pain meds and that I was fully dilated when I got here!!!
I have a low tolerance of pain so I’m screwed either way 😂 but I am going to get through a natural birth no matter what!
Quick question: Are the contractions or pushing the most painful?
I’ve felt contractions with my first and omg. But I didn’t experience the pushing. He was way to tiny.
Amen
