Lost plug and bloody show Friday morning before work, went to work, went shopping after work, hauled groceries up and down our stairs. Laid down at 6 pm because I felt some gas pains. 18 minutes later I noticed the gas cramp type pain seemed to be coming regular below bump above pelvic and I had no gas, so I thought I would track. They were coming 7 min, 15 min back and forth. At 9 pm, seemed to be a little more stronger so took bath and noticed they were all 5 min apart and about 45 sec. Called birthing center because we were hour and a half away. She said we could probably wait. But then they were 4 min, so we decided to get our son to friends. The ride was long front contractions were getting more and more. We got to birthing center at 1:30 am, the nurse thought..hmmm maybe early because the contractions slowed slightly. I was 2 cm
Then bam...15 min later all contractions moved to my back...so intense...coming fast. Doc said wouldn't need pain meds, would take quite some time to get to 5 cm. Water broke at 4:05 am and I went from 2 cm to 7.5 cm that fast. I was screaming for epidermal because my back labor was so...painful but I had went so fast they didn't have an IV in me and I had to go through half a bag of fluids before they could do epideral. I wanted all natural...but the back pain was so intense! 40 minutes later after a contraction I almost had half the fluids gone so close to an epideral...but all the sudden I said I have to poop...no I have to push! They turned me over and said...you are fully dilated...no meds..you are having baby now! Doctors were in shock...they could see hair! I pushed 45 minutes, they did an episiotomy and the next push he was out! Born at 5:59 am. 7 lb 9 oz and 19.3 in
 
Wow! You dilated so quickly! Congratulations. :flower: cute name too! X
 
I have to say, I went natural like I wanted to...but I was begging for something at last minute because I went so...fast the back labor was intense!

But now, I forgot about it! He was alert and breastfed the entire time they delivered placenta and stitched me. No one had to help him latch because he was not looped up on meds or epideral. All day he was alert and latched at every feeding.
