Birth story:
After weeks of red raspberry leaf tea, primrose oil, acupuncture, walking, homeopathic meds, labor tincture, etc. Feb 2nd I went to the hospital in the morning to have prostaglandin gels inserted to help soften my cervix since I had to be induced with my first at 42 weeks we were trying to prevent that this time. I went home, about 8hrs later I started having bad contractions lasting 40secs about 4 mins apart. They went away after an hour and a half so I didn't call my midwife, around 10pm I had a little fluid leak but that was common for me so I didn't think anything of it. The next morning I was scheduled at the hospital for a second gel insertion. I mentioned to the nurse about the the fluid leak so she decided to check it, sure enough my water had broke. We were so shocked! They called my midwife and she admitted me and started pitocin around 3pm on feb. 3rd, I gave birth to Emmie Rose feb. 4th 1:16am weighing 8lbs 4oz, 19 inches long. No epidural, and just a paper cut tear everything went amazing! She is a great eater and we are very excited that she is here♡
