On January 28 my baby boy arrived. Not at all how I had expected!! 
My pregnancy with him was a little difficult. I was told I would miscarry by 6 weeks and not be excited about him (of course I was already in love with my angel!!) Then I bled heavy until I hit about 7 months. I had fluid leak at 6 months. and he was already in position do come into the world.
The day I had him:
Around 9am I went to my appointment and everything was perfect, I had made it to 37 weeks and was already 5cm dilated and 90 thinned out. My ob thought I would go into labor the next day or the day after. Either way I was getting induced at 38.
After my appointment I had gone to work (just 2 hours), I noticed I was bleeding and my co-worker and also good friend said I should call. I decided if anything else happened I would.
I went to lunch with my mom after work, went to the bathroom and noticed tissue/blood in my pee so I called. The nurse didn't think it was anything.
Got home and was setting my daughters toys up for when she got home and felt something really silky so I went to check and it was bloody and white just weird, they told me to go in to get checked.
-Once there, I had found out my water already broke and I needed to have him that night. I was totally in shock and probably cried for about 40 minutes. I was so overwhelmed and everything that I had gone through just hit me. (My friends baby had died of SIDS at 2 months a few days before and my sister in law lost her twins at 8 months)
Now labor was a bit scary!
They gave me pitocin and I couldn't feel any contractions. My blood pressure was fine but my heart rate was 200. Later on my face started going numb and I was fainting in and out. I had oxygen for about maybe an hr. After that the rest of the labor was fine, I got stuck on 7 for 3 hours! and then the next thing I know I'm ready to push! I had my mom, two best friends, boyfriend and mother in law in the room so it wasn't too bad! lol At 2:06am I had Jack weighing in at 8 pounds 3oz.
Healthy as can be!!
