So basiscally my due date was on July 4th.July 4th came annndd noo baby.ugghhhh.I was soaggrivated at this point.Monday July 7th I woke up early to get a non stress test and a BPP.I was running a little late so I didnt get a chance to have breakfast.I got there and did the Non stress test,everything was good,then I was leaving out and the doctor called my name.I had forgot to go in the other room for my sonogram.I got my sonogram and the lady was kind of quiet.not saying much while she was doing it.She said she will be right back and she was going to give it to the head doctor to come and take a look at it.So about 5 minutes later he came in and introduced himself and then asked me how I was feeling.I said im feeling hungry and I cant wait to get home and eat some blueberry pancakes..He said well i dont think thats gonna happen because today is ur luck day.YOUR GETTING INDUCED.ur baby will be here by tommorow.When I tell u my effin faced dropped right down to the floor.I was soo suprised.Any other day I go in to get my stress test I always eat alot b4 I go hoping that they gonna keep me and they n ever do.The day my ass decides to be late and starve myself and not even have a drink of water,they decide to keep me.Where is the luck in that.So I called my boyfriend and of course he was sleep so he didnt pick up the phone for like another 40 minutes.They told me to go upstairs to labor and delivery.When i got there, I have never in my life seen so many women in labor.It was sooo jammed packed in the waiting room.Some women were having contractions talking all the lord jesus christ oh my god im gonna die stuff.Others were just chilling like me.I sat in that room for about 6 hours before I got a room.So i finally got my room.As soon as i went in they hooked me up to my meds becuz I was positive for group B strep.I called my man and finally got in touch with him.He was nervous like hell when I told him that we were goin go have the baby.So when he finally arrived he came with a shitload of boston market.I was so tight cuz I was starving.Sooo we sat and waited,then about an hour later they gave me pitocin to speed up my contractions.By 1 in the morning I was 6cm and i still didnt feel any contracttions but the monitor showed that they were coming strong.the nurses kept coming in to check on me asking me did I want an epidural for the pain.I was like what pain.Im fine Im A WARRIOR.A c ouple of minutes later me and my man heard some lady screaming for the epidural.Like she literally woke the whole labor and delivery floor up.I was like damn.Im glad I dont have to go through that,Boyy did I speak too soon.I fell asleep for about an hour and woke up screaming my lungs the fu*k off.It was about 2:30 in the morning now.those contractions hurted sooooooo bad,I cannot describe them.i rung that little buzzer they gave me off the hook.They didnt even come for like another hour,My man was holding my hand and rubbbing my back telling me that everything was gonna be ok,He looked like he wanted to cry for me.So they finally came and that epidural felt like heaven.It was like a 50 million dollar lotto winning.Butt then about two hours later it wore off..Womp Womp.But only on one side so it was weird.So I just decided to hang in there.My whole left sde was numb,when I got up to go pee,I fell.i couldnt walk.Si then about 9 am the docs came in and woke me up and told me that I was 9.5cm dilated and that in about an hour I canstart pushing.My man was fast asleep and im throwinng clothes at him,socks,water bottles.anything to wake his ass up.The nurse kicked his foot and was like exscuse me ur girlfriend is gonna start pushing so go get something to eat really fast becuz u look like ur gonna pass out. So he came back with just an apple juice.at 10 oclock 2 nurses came in and I began to push.My man held one leg up and the nurse held the other.I pushed and pushed and pushed for about an hour and noo progress.So then I began to push again and i just kept shitting and farting..lol It was soo funy having my man there witnessing it.he was covering up his nose like "omg nurse canI pleeasssee have a mask?" i couldnt control it though.It was like the pushing just pushed asll my gas out.So another lady came in and told me I had a visitor.It was my sister.So my man went out to go get her and then she came in also to assist with the delivery.She had one leg up and my man had the other now.i pushed for about another hour and the heaad kept going in and out,in and out.The whole time my sis and my man just kept going back and forth cracking jokes on me..i was like helll wtf is this comedy central.Then to top it off i have a chinese doc,a spanish doc,and a jamaican doc and they are all telling me to push at the same time with all theses different accents and my man was whispering in my ear,saying come on baby u can do it and his breath was sooo hot so i was aggrivated out my ass with all these voices.Then I got hungrier and more tired so I was falling asleep while I was pushing.videos was on BET so everyone was just watching videos while I was pushing.You would have sworn this was a club and not a delivery.then the nurse noticed this pushingwasnt going anywhere and the videos were so distracting so about an hour later like 1 something she turned to the food channel and came in with all theses different plates of good food.Im talking chicken cesar salad,lasaugna.baked ziti.roast chicken..She said the quicker u push the baby out,the quicker u can eat this.I said okay ppl lets get this show on the road.So i pushed and pushed and pushed for about another hour still no progress.Just the head going in and out.then I noticed the nurses whispering things to echother and looking at the monitor so I got really scared.they said that the baby was getting stressed from the head going in and out for so many hours.I got so scared at that point and thought I was going to lose her becuz I literally had no strength to push.I started crying and the dfoctor came in and told me that we needed to deliver th ebaby fast to avoid any problems so she asked me have I ever heard of the vaccuum,I told her yes and that I wanted it so she hooked me up to the vacuum and I pushed and her head was all the way out.She was crying and only her head was out.eveyyone was in such shock.they said they have never witnessed anything like that before.I then pushed one more time and she fleww out.I was soo happy.they was like yyaaayyyy its a girl.I was like yeah yeah I know can someone please pass me the food,anyone pass a plate please damn it.So my man went over with the nurses while they weighed her and did her apgar score which was a 9 by the way.I sw him tearing up.him and my sis were both crying.It still didnt hit me yet that i was a mom.i felt so weird like i was beggining to stress.So they weighed her and she was 7lbs. 13 0z and 21 inches long.They put her on my chest and i immediatley began to breastfeed.she latched right on with no problems at all.i was like wooww no wonder ur so big.But it was the most painful but best experience in my life.I dont even remember the pain anymore and Im just happy my babygirl is here.
