Как я пережила естественные роды без эпидуральной анестезии?

labor story

To give you ladies a little update, yesterday morning around 430 I woke up and was soaked, wasn't sure if it was my water or what but, I went back to bed. From then on to like 7:30, I was waking up with irregular contractions but didn't think much of it since I had false labor so many times already. Got up, went pee and lost my mucus plug. Started timing contractions and they were like a 2-3 minutes apart, lasting 20-30 seconds. Called my clinic and they said to come in and make sure my water didn't break. Well, sure enough it was my water and I had dilated to a 5. Got admitted around 11:30 or 12. Got an epidural at 7cm. It worked for like half an hour. The guy messed up bad. Asked for my epidural to be fixed, by the time he got back down to my room, my body was trying to push and I was in so much pain. Well, she ended up being born at 3:37pm! All natural besides the half an hour of relief. I can't believe I did it natural. I'm still in shock by it. I didn't think i was gonna be able to do it lol.
