25-6-2008 - birth story

My mood while writing this blog: tired

---

Well lets see where do I begin. That night I was feeling really crampy all of a sudden and lil man was more than usual but I didnt really pay it any mind. So I took my shower and told my kids I was going to bed early. When I fell asleep the cramps kept waking me up but I was sooo tired I didnt pay it any attention,. All of a sudden at about 1:30 am I jumped out of bed and water just starting running down my legs I went in my sons room and woke him up and told him my water had broke to wake up he jumped up got the girls up started calling my husband cause he works nights he told him and called my mom who stays not even 10 min away and she was over in about 5 min and my sis that stays right around the cornor came with my nephew so he could stay with the kids. My husband got here in no time he said he was doing 90 on the freeway. LOL So as you can see I had the whole fam in the house. LOL Got to the hospital checked in got checked out and placed in the labor and delievery room. I got my epi at around ohhh I cant remember but I did get one after hearing my mother saying about one hundred times I wouldnt get that cause it slows down your contractions and I looking at her like would she please be quiet she not the one in pain she even said it to my husband when the came to do the epi and when the lady asked me if I still wanted it she looked at my mother first as if she had to get her permission first. I love my mom to pieces but she know she can work the nerves sometimes and I am thinking to myself last time I checked I was 36 yrs old. LoL So anyway my mom was right and I figured it would happen also thats why I tried to hold out getting the epi until I couldnt take it no more. So they gave me potocin and I was cool for awhile just laying up there hearing my mom and husband talk about who the baby was going to look like he said here and she said him and Im like ok they saying everybody except the person who carried him for 9 months HELLO!! So as time went by contractions starting hurting a lil more and they started saying his heart rate was dropping with each contraction and i knew what was next C section. And I was saying not if I could help it I started praying asking God to help. When they checked me I was at 8 cm and everyone started clapping cause I stayed at 5 for like ll hr. All of a sudden I had the urge to push at 8:27 my lil man was out and I was crying and so was he. LOL Even though I was in labor that long it didnt hurt that much and when I saw my lil Omari I didnt care. And I dont care how many time you go down the road to having a baby each one is like your first you fall in Love all over again.
