I was pretty active throughout my pregnancy, I worked (standing all day) up until the doctor put me on bed rest one month before i gave birth.
I ate all the right things and didn't do anything that was frowned upon in the books(which i read a LOT!)
I grew up in a little north country town so the hospital was not far from my house, maybe 10 minutes at the most.
i had a "Feeling" ALL night long that I just couldn't shake. and i know alot of moms say this, just to say it afterward. but i kept saying it that night. and i tend to have a psychic side.
well we had a good night, watched movies and started a fire. then it was bedtime.
in the middle of the night at about 4:20 AM(okay morning lol) i just WOKE up out of a DEAD sleep....my eyes shot open and i thought, "whats going on???" i almost woke up payton's bio dad but didn't, b.c. i thought he'd think i was nuts...then i felt a pop in my tummy.
this wasn't a "kick" feeling though...and i knew it.
I sat up and started to walk to the bathroom which is on the other side of my bedroom wall, and i felt something slimy and i look down and it was the rest of my mucous plug i thought(earlier the day b4 i had some of the plug come out) then im trying to figure out if it is in fact the mucous plug when water gushes out(my water broke)
then i wake up her bio father and we get in the car and head to the hospital.
we got there at around 4:40AM? i DIDNT want a C Section at ALL. I was hell bent on having her with NO drugs, but i wondered if i actually could, since everyone said i prolly wouldn't.
the doc came in after the nurses hooked me up and said we will be here a while and left...
suddenly i felt like i HAD to push. i told the nurse and shes like well i'll go get him but i doubt you need him.
he checked me and said i could deff push next contraction. they kept asking me if i needed pain meds. and i kept saying nooo.
i pushed for a while and the contractions were what hurt, it felt like a relief to push. finally they said that she was crowning and he asked if i had discussed an episiotomy with my doctor(b.c. my doctor wasn't there this was the third dc i had during my pregnancy...)
and i said no, but it was kind of too late she had already ripped me and so he tried to cut but i had ripped three ways( it sounds bad but at the time all i could feel was a lot of tugging and i knew she was out)
they wrapped her up and handed her to me and i cried, i couldn't believe that i had made this beautiful little human. all the pain in the world was worth it. I wouldn't trade it for the world. she's amazing and amazing me more every day

and really i have a high pain tolarance but it wasn't as bad as a lot of girls make it out to be. i think that girls tend to be a little dramatic at times and they just want attention lol. tough it out ladies!!!!
