Emily was born at 39 weeks 1 day, on 4/4/09 at 8 pm. I can't believe when they said she was 8 lbs 2 oz and 21 in! So I started having some painful contractions at 9 am on Saturday morning. They were anywhere from 2 to 7 min apart! I had some pink blood with mucus too so that's when I realized that could be it. Also the contractions kept getting more intense even though I tried to shower, drink lots of water and walk! At 2 pm I called the doctor and he said I am probably in active labor especially since this is my second baby. I got to the hospital by 3 pm and I was 3 cm dilated (I was already 1.5 cm on Wednesday by the way). They admitted me and started IV with antibiotics and fluids. At 4 pm I was almost 5 cm. At 5 pm I asked for epidural because contractions started to get really painful. I wanted to pull my husbands fingers and hair out each time I had contraction lol. Epi only made the left side of my body numb and I still felt awful contractions in my right side. At 6 pm they decided to completely redo my epidural, uh oh... It finally worked, thank God. Then in 1 hour, at 7 pm I was 9-10 cm dilated and started pushing at 7:45 pm! She was out at 7:59 pm. I had episiotomy and still got second degree tear because I am pretty small 'down there' (I had second degree tear with my first one and she was only 6 lbs 7 oz). Oh and, nope I didn't poop while pushing :) I was completely numb from waist down, I am surprised how I could push. I didn't feel any pain even when doctor stuck his hand(s) inside and turned the baby because she was facing wrong way at first. And I didn't feel when he did episiotomy. But I did feel HUGE relief when she came out. Oh, I am so happy she is out, lol. Right now I am not on any pain medicine and my pain is 1-2 out of 10 around the area where my stitches are, really nothing! Oh, and I am so happy she is breastfeeding so great! My first baby completely refused nomatter what I tried!
