So sorry i'm late!! I've been enjoying my time with Jayla 
Still wanted to share tho because it's kinda interesting , but i'll try to keep it short!
So I did end up going on my vacation ( had a great time week with my family ) , got back on Sunday around 7 p.m , & then went to my boyfriends house around 9 . Around 11 THAT NIGHT my water broke when we were laying in bed watching t.v.! I called my doctor & we made our way to the hospital . My mom met us there with Jayla's diaper bag , & some clothes & things for me . I wasn't feeling any contractions yet so my mom went home & me & my boyfriend went to sleep.! Still no contractions when i woke up so they started me on pitocin around 9 & broke the rest of my water then the contractions started coming . At first they werent bad but by 11 i was in so much pain :/ . They checked me around 1 o'clock & i was only 4 c.m dilated . They took my blood & discovered that my platelet? count was dropping really low ( low platelet causes excessive internal bleeding & is dangerous ) & my blood pressure was very high . The doctors & nurses were talking really seriously about a C section & i was so scared because i did not want that.! Mean while my contractions were getting so much worse & they couldn't give me any pain medication because of all the problems i was having . worst pain i ever felt! Then all of a sudden around 2 i was like , i NEED to push haha . & the doctor rushed in , i pushed for like 10 minutes , & my baby girl was born at 2:20 , weighing 6 lbs. 7 o.z. & healthy
It all happened really quick haha & i'm just so glad i didn't get that C section
Because of the platelet count & blood pressure i couldn't be switched to a post partum room that day & i had to stay on a bunch of different IVs , stay in bed , & get a cathiter put in . I had to get my blood pressure checked every hour & i couldn't eat , i would have been pretty miserable haha if it wasn't for my baby girl . All that did get old tho so i was happy when they switched me to the post partum room the next night.! My count went up & baby girl was in perfect health so they let us leave on Wednesday the 11th , & now we're home & she's 9 days old
* apologies for not keeping it very short haha
