George`s birth story

Went to the hospital on Thursday June 5th with contractions and some pressure pains.
I was monitored for a while and then once the doctor got there he said I was in early labor, and that he wanted to keep me overnight. Said that if I did not have him over night that at 6 am the next morning they would start the pitocin! He said that this trip to the hospital I would not be leaving with out my baby in my arms, and boy was I relieved! They said they would be in at 5am to wake me up and let me shower and get ready. They gave me and ambien and I passed out, had contractions through the night, but nothing happened. So 4:30 am rolls around and I was up before the nurse even walked through the door! So I got my shower and then they hooked me up to the monitor, Started my IV around 6:30 and added the bag of pitocin. Minutes after that the Contractions just got way more intense and were 4 minutes apart, They were so painful, My husband did such a great job of helping me with my breathing and trying to keep my mind off of the pain of the contractions. I knew things were going to go fast, I started begging for the epidural. The nurse checked me I was only 3 cm and completely effaced. So I stuck out a few more contractions I told them I realllllly need the epidural now, I was crying and shaking so my nurse checked me and said I was 4! I can get the epidural, ( I was really only 3 1/2 and she lied for me! Thank God! ) So FINALLY the guy came and I sat up in the bed and I started having a contraction, I was half on the bed half off and it felt like the baby was going to fall out of me! My husband was holding me up during this so I didnt fall on the floor, The contraction ended and I scooted my butt on the bed, Finally got the epidural and I layed back, had a few more really painful contractions before the epi started to kick in..but once it did I was in heaven, But then all of a sudden I started feeling a TON of pressure, I screamed I feel like im going to have to push soon and my nurse checked me and said I was 10 cm and completely effaced!! So my nurse starts setting up and all I hear is that my midwife is literally RUNNING down the hallway to get to me...they take the bottom off of the bed, raise the leg rests, My husband helped support my left leg and the nurse had my right. They told me to start pushing, So I did, I pushed about 3-4 times and as the babys body came out I screamed a couple of times and then there he was!! I couldnt believe it! George was actually going to help deliver the baby, But little George wanted out and came so fast that he couldn't help catch him! I was so out of it, The epidural didnt have enough time to fully work, so I felt soooo much pain while pushing him out. He ripped me a little, I got 3 stitches. But all worth it for our big beautiful 100% healthy baby boy! 8lbs 10 oz!!!!!! His head was 14 inches around!

It was such a great expirience, My husband was wonderful and supported me with everything and did such a good job with helping me through the labor, He held my hand through it all. I had a fantastic nurse and a fantastic midwife there for me too which made it that much better!

He is a fantastic boy and is breastfeeding like a champ! I wish he would stay this size forever. I'm so in love with him and couldnt have asked for a better baby boy.
