Emilee Hanna was born June 13, 2014 at 4:30pm. Weighing 7.5lbs and 19 in. She is absolutely perfect! I am totally in love with her! Everything I went through to have her was completely worth every moment!! :kiss:

I went to the ob Thursday afternoon on the 12th...I was having very close painful contractions, but was not dilated again!! Then that night I went to l&d....still not dilated they sent me home got home at 12am...laid in bed screaming...at 2:30am my water broke. Went to the hospital with my mom, one of my bff's met us there. I was dilated 1.5. By 5ish I was 3 dilated and was giving an epi...was in pain. This was all in triage...they were completely booked turning people away! There was a full moon...Friday the 13th and a storm! By 6:30 I had a room and my one bff left and the other showed up! By around 10 am...my 3rd bff was there with us. So it was my mom and two of my bff's. They have me the meds to get me to dilate...can't think of the name. Brain fart here! :wacko: A few hours later I was in pain...feeling major pressure...the nurse said nothing was happening..I told her to check me...she said it was too soon...I told her it felt like my bladder was going to explode...she didn't like me saying that...seeing that she didn't want my bladder to explode!! :dohh: I told her i have no idea how to explain it...that's the best way. After begging about 5 times to check me she got a head nurse to check....AND I WAS FULLY DILATED!!! :happydance: So with in 30 minutes, we decided to practice pushing...then they decided I was ready for the real thing...stated pushing at 3pm...and at 4:30pm on the dot...Emilee came kicking her way out!!!!! :happydance::cry::hugs::baby: They had to take her to clean her up because she had already pooped inside me...I couldn't stop crying and staring at her while they had her, she was crying as well. :cry: After they cleaned her up...I held her and fed her and would not let go of her for an hour and a half!!!!! :baby: Everything was absolutely perfect! I had a second degree tear, which I got stitches for...ouch and a small cut that they didn't do anything about but are keeping an eye on it. We stayed in the hospital til Sunday...and then we came home! She is perfect...nursing wonderfully...sleeping when she wants...keeping me on my toes, I am exhausted but it is absolutely worth it!!! :crib:
