AVA-ROSE-LOREN`s birthstory

so lets start off with march 13th (her due date) and my 40 week mark. I get into the doctors office and he told me imnot dialated at all and my cervix hasn`t softened. I was sooooo frustrated when he told me this i felt like it was going to take forever!.. he told me he was going to do a membrane sweep (basically when they scratch your cervix to soften it) he says 50% of the time it helps speed things up! it was VERY uncomfotable but i said sweep away doc! lol ... i go home and a few hours later i had mild cramps ... yes it did feel like period cramps... i was talking to my girlfriend who has a baby around 6 oclock and i got a very bad cramp and had to stop talking for a bit to breathe it out... she said JESSICA YOUR IN LABOUR THATS NOT CRAMPS U IDIOT! between lauphing and wincing in pain i decided to start timing them... they were aproximatly 30 minutes apart so it was still very early... around 9 oclock they started coming more regular and much more painful ... i waited it out until 12 oclock when they were 6 minutes apart and lasting 30 -45 seconds before i couldnt take it ... off to the hospital to do a few tests see how dialated i was how far apart and how bad the contractions were... well i was only 1.5 cm dialated and about 50 % effaced which was great to hear concidering i was completley closed up 12 hours earlier... so they shot me in the bum with demerol to help me go home and get some rest and i was told to come back when the contractions were unbearable my water broke or i lost my mucas plug... i couldnt sleep through the contractions at all... all the demerol did was make it easier to breathe through them at 9 oclock in the morning march 14th i went to the bathroom and had some of the mucas plug come out... it wasnt pink it was RED thats how u`ll know.... anyways 11 am and to the hospital i go again... the entire time i was there they gave me another demoral shot right in the butt to help me through it when it started to get very bad.... it help relax me again but did nothing to ease the pain... 5p.m the nurse checked to see how dialated i was and my water broke right then lol .... from then on the contractions were UNBEARABLE!!! i was 8.5 cm dialated and i was BEGGING for an epidural at this point... i wasn`t planning on having one but i will tell anyone who says there not planning on getting one to leave that option open because it is extremley painful... HOWEVER i am soooo glad i didnt get one and i made it through the pain... by 6p.m my doctor made it there and i was ready to go! pushing was easier than dealing with the contractions because when they came u could push through them... it took an hour and 18minutes to push through them and i was past the point of exhaustion ( they were literally minutes away from cutting me open down there to get her out) so on my last major efforts she came out and it was painful and magical and i would do it all over again in a heartbeat... nothing beats that feeling of when they finally put her in my arms the exhaustion was gone and there she was! i did it thats all i could think i did it! .... and with no tears no rips and no epidural..

since then my fiance mike has been great im back to feeling like my old self... i was after the first week and its been a semi easy adjustment she does wake up 3 times a night for feedings which is very tiring bu tthe only thing i can say is rest in the day when uca... if ur anything like me u want to get things done when shes sleeping laundry dishes ect... but trust me that stuf can wait rest and enjoy it because even in the 11 days shes been born ive already wathed her change so much!
