so at 10:05am on Wednesday April 28th 2010 my doctor put the prostin gel on my cervix and i was 1cm dialated and within 2 hours i was having some mild contractions, they were just enough to show up on the machine and we were sent out to go walking and get things going 'naturally'. i went back at 4:00pm and was checked and i was 3cms and put on an IV for antibiotics for GBS once the anti-biotics were done we were sent out to walk again and was told to go back at 8:00pm for more antibiotics by 7:00pm i was in alot of pain and we went back but were told to go and keep walking so at 8:00pm we went back and i was only 4cms and very frustrated and thinking it was going to be a very very long labour. They gave me some fentanyl for the pain and it did NOTHING! lol that is when they realized that my IV had pooped out of the vein and they had to redo my IV once they did that and the drugs hit i couldnt even talk but it felt so blissful as it took away the pain and i was able to sleep between contractions....here is where it gets kind of blurry.... they moved me into my own delivery room at about 10:00pm and checked me again and i was 6cms and i looked at Mark (my OH) and said only 4 more to go lol. and there was some more pain well LOTS more pain and i think i actually started to moo haha. they checked me 30 minutes later and i was already 9cms, that explains the mooing, and they started to get the stuff ready for delivery and i was begging for more drugs i was almost 10cmz there was what she called a sliver of cervix left and she told me to let my body panic instead of pushing, so at 11:35pm she told me to push... i was excited and scared and was watching between my legs, she was face up and i watched her come out and into the doctors arms
i was told my whole pregnancy that i was having a boy and she was and is most definately a GIRL lol
she was born April 28th 2010 at 11:42 pm, weighing 7lbs 11ozs and so beautiful after what they say was a 6-10 hour labour, i honestly have no clue LOL
she now weighs 7lbs even and is the worlds BEST breastfeeder and really just the best baby ever
My whole family is so in love with her
thanks for reading my very long birth story/ announcment, and congrats to everybody else
