ok so ive been SOOO busy that Jayce is now a week old as of tomorrow! i have no idea where the days went!!!
So0o here we go.. i laid down for bed on the 28th feeling the usual.. woke up multiple times throughout the night because my back hurt but i thought it was just the way i was sleeping, it wasnt lol
finally about 7am i woke up and could not go back to sleep.. it hurt but wasnt intense pain.. i waited about an hour because i was unsure about if they were really contractions.. they didnt stop so i phoned my labor and delivery and they said drink water and wait.. great.
i drank couple bottles of water and the contractions stayed with me.. i waited a couple hours and finally decided to go in.. i got to the hospital about 12-1PM and they checked my cervix (OUCH!!!) and i was only at a 2 =(.. they sent me to walk around the hospital for a couple hours which helped bring me to a 3, again OUCH!!! the pain was getting so intense the doctors gave me some morphine and just let me wait.. it helped but jeeze it still hurt! =( hours later they checked me (OUCH!!!) and i was finally at a 4 so they admitted me..
so i was being walked from the triage room to the delivery room and guess what! gush! there goes my water! thats when the contractions hit me like a truck! i got in the room and they got the epidural in fast! by that time it was about 7-8PM.. from there i just waited.. epidural worked great
they checked me a couple more times (no ouch ) and when i reached 7cm i seemed to just be stuck so they hooked me up with a little pitocin to jump start my contractions again.. simply just a waiting game from there..
eventually i started feeling a slighty tingly tickling sensation with my contractions and i kept laughing while people were talking to me the sensation got stronger and it was the urge to push.. I let the nurses kno and they checked me again.. they found evidence of meconium =( but I was fully dilated and at a +3 station! Time to push!!!
While I was pushing the babys heart rate started to drop so they turned me on my side quick! I was so distracted I didn’t even realize I had one leg way up in the air! (my bestfriend told me) I pushed for about 15 min and my beautiful baby boy came into this world perfectly healthy!
