birth story • short version
my water broke around 5am, it woke me up and was followed by intense contractions that were so close they felt constant. i felt like i couldn’t wait for spencer’s mom to get here, so we woke aaleyah and headed for the hospital.
by ~6:30am i was being admitted to labor and delivery and was told i had made it to 7 cms. originally i wanted an epidural, but things moved quickly and it wasn’t a priority so i ended up having a “natural” birth.
at 10:15am, after an hour of pushing, zaidee elle porter came into the world screaming. she weighs 7 lbs exactly and looks just like her mama, which is perfect since we share a birthday ✨💗

i had a few hours so i probably could’ve gotten it in time if i wasn’t so caught up in other things! i was distracted because we had aaleyah and i was trying to get someone to come get her, nobody was prepared to watch her because i kept insisting id make it to my due date and need to be induced 😂 my bad

I’m dying to know too lol. I had a epidural last time, I was thinking natural this time around but I don’t think I’m ready for that life 😂
Corinne··
I know it sounds awful but I want to enjoy my experience and not be in pain 🤣🤭 I have had the epidural 3x so far and plan to with my last as well... lol
S ♥️··
that’s how I feel 😂 I was in labor 29 hours. I did 15 hours natural and tapped out. I said “epidural for 500 please” 😂😂😂 the nurses started cracking up

all three my labors was super easy but when I felt contraction pain like for 45 mins with my first Im like oh hell no ma'am if I can have it and its a normal thing tons women do every day then hook me up a feeding tube and gimme that little red button to push for more meds plz...

the pain from the contractions honestly wasn’t too bad, i mean it hurt like hell don’t get me wrong, but it the one hour of pushing with no epidural was 1000x times worse than the contractions 😂 if i had known she wasn’t just going pop out right away, id have made sure i got the epidural. i was expecting her to be out in only a couple pushes since my labor had come on & progressed so quickly!
