Birth story;

On March 26, 2019 I started having contractions just a couple hours after my great grandma passed away.

They were about 5 minutes apart.

On March 30, 2019 I was at my grandmas services and my contractions got to be 2 minutes apart, and a little stronger. They didn’t feel like regular contractions.

On March 31, 2019 We were at the grave yard and my contractions were getting more intense and uncomfortable! By that evening I was so uncomfortable I couldn’t rest. I decided to take Tinley and go home. Around 3am that night I had lost my mucus plug, and the contractions was almost unbearable. I stuck it out though.

April 1, 2019 I took Tinley to daycare at 6:30am and went on to work because I was only scheduled 4 hours that day. Contractions was so bad I could barely walk. I was at work for almost 2 hours when I finally gave in and told my mom to come get me.

As I was at work waiting on my mom my contractions got to be 2 minutes apart and so intense!

I called my doctor and they wanted me to come to the office and get checked instead of going straight to the hospital. (The office and hospital is an hour away)

We make it to the office and the doctor comes in to check me. She asked me what I was dilated to the week before and I told her 2cm.

She checks me and tells me that I’m 5cm and fully thinned. She told me I was having a baby and to go to the hospital. (The hospital is just next door)

Me and my mom drive over to the hospital and go to the Er so they could get me registered quicker and sent to labor and delivery!

By the time I made it to labor and delivery I was 7cm.

I walked the halls, did squats, and rocked in a rocking chair.

I made it to 9cm and finally told them I wanted the epidural. I got the epidural and was able to rest for an hour and then I started to feel everything again.

The doctor who did my epidural came back in and gave me some more medicine, but it wasn’t helping.

I stop dilating at 9 1/2 cm. I had tried pushing, but Tatum just wasn’t moving down far enough like babies should.

His heart rate started to bottom out and then a few times it wasn’t even on the monitors!

They rushed the doctor in and he told me if I didn’t get Tatum out ASAP that they were rushing me to have an emergency c-section.

I was on my hands and knees trying to get his heart rate back up but it wasn’t working.

He told me he was going to use the forceps to try an get Tatum. They were a success and he was able to get Tatum’s head out, and that’s when we saw that he was still face up. That’s why I stopped dilating and the contractions were so bad.

The doctor laid the forceps down and went to work Tatum on out when a big gush of water shot Tatum out and the doctor had barely caught him by the neck!

He came out so fast that I got second degree tear!

I had blood vessels busted all over my face and in my eyes from pushing so hard.

The was the most intense labor ever! I’m pretty sure the whole hospital heard me screaming.

Tatum was born at 9:05pm on April fools day!

!!!!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 10-15 mins, but the new City Target had opened across the st from my MiL house in Fenway, (go Red Sox! ⚾ ) and I had to coupon (it is a big coupon week!) so, I went to Target and couponed, hurled over in pain every 10 minutes, coupons in hand 😂😂😢 Went home, contractions were really intense and came every 3-4mins, so around 3am I called the hospital again and said I'm having really bad pains, and I can barely walk. They take my breath away and I think I'm in labor. Again, she said I would be screaming and unable to be so "chatty" if I was in labor, and to stay home and go to sleep. Obviously I couldn't sleep with these killer contractions every 2-3 mins now! Monday morning, July 27 contractions were now every 1-2 minutes, intense like someone was rilling out my insides, I tried rocking on the glider in the nursery, tried soaking in the bathtub, but I was in tears from the pain and from lack of sleep for two nights now, so I told hubby if these aren't labor pains I'm not waiting until I'm actually in labor. Let's to go the hospital and get the Epidural (my plan was to go natural) and he's like ok let's go. Arrived at the hospital around 10:15, got admitted, sat around moaning while the nurses told me relax, you'll catch your breath, we will get you a room in a minute. Meanwhile I'm in a wheelchair doubled over barely able to breathe. I thought I was going to pass out from the pain! Got into a room, they listened to baby's heartbeat, and midwife came in to check for dilation. "Oh my god I don't even feel much cervix. You're 9cm dilated honey let's go push!" I almost passed out at that point! I told her I can't do this it hurts soooo bad. But we got into a room, I pushed for the longest ten minutes of my life and out he came! I tore and got stitches, but not from end to end thank god. Still sore and uterus is cramping but everything else is going well. Breastfeeding is so hard! We will get there though! Third night of no sleep so don't mind the bags under my eyes hahaha And yes I am going to hunt down that darn midwife who told me to stay at home cuz I was fine and not in labor! Smh I had a CVS coupon trip planned for yesterday, but I'll take Ezra any day! So glad I pulled through with my plan though. It feels so empowering! Not saying next time I'd do it again 😂😂😂

Sorry I havent posted an update on whats happened. I finally.had my baby boy, Noah Jesus Zamora 😍 So I went in Friday…

Sorry I havent posted an update on whats happened. I finally.had my baby boy, Noah Jesus Zamora 😍 So I went in Friday night due to small contractions, once I made it to the hospital they had become regular & I was almost 2 cm dilated. They kept me for 2 hours before sending me home because my contractions werent causing any dilation. So my bf & I spent the night at my mothers just incase something happened. I tried to fall asleep around 1 something in the a.m. after timing contractions that were 2-3 mins apart. I sleep on & off until 3 a.m. and my contractions had gotten worse. I went to use the bathroom and I had seen that I completely lost my mucous plug/had my show! So I woke my mom up & she sat with me for a while. I walked around the house for a bit and before I knew it the contractions had progressed so I called ny doctor & he told me to head to the hospital. When I get there they start to monitor baby Noah & my contractions and when I got checked I made progress. So they hooked me up to an IV because they thought maybe I was dehydrated & they gave me some morphine around 6 a.m. so I could sleep. I was in so much pain from the contractions and needles I cried & my bf started to cry because he hated to see me in such pain. I kept falling in out of sleep after the morphine shot. Definitely couldnt sleep through the contractions. They brought me breakfast around 8 o'clock, which made my mom and bf think they were gonna send me home again. Later on around 2 my doctor came in to check my cervix & surprisingly I was 3 cm dilated (the amount you have to be for my hospital to admit you) so it hit me that I wasn't leaving without my baby boy. They told me they weren't gonna check again for another 2 hours to give me some time to progress to 4 cm & get the epidural. So within those 2 hours it had gotten BAD I was in the worst pain ever. and around 4 the nurse came in to check my cervix, come to find out I was FULLY DILATED! I freaked because I did not want to feel all of the pain of giving birth. I told my nurse I wanted try the epidural even though there was a huge chance it would have no effect. Getting the epiduarl was a pan becaue I was having full blown contractions while having to stay still complety it was horrible. So after that I waited for it to kick in a bit, it definitely helped the only thing I could feel was the urge to poop. It took me almost an hour to push and it was seriously the worst pain ever because I could feel the burning and everything but finally out came Noah 😍 weighing 7 pounds 13 ounces & 18 inches long looking just like his daddy. Im so in love and my life is now complete. We couldn't be happier to have finally met our baby! Longest labor story ever lol I babble!
