Well as some of you know I was being induced Monday Feb 4th in the morning. I woke up very early Monday morning around 12:30-1 w/ alittle blood w/ my mucus and started to have mild contractions which I didn't time cause I was going to be induced anyways. I checked in the hospital at 5:30 AM and got the IV running and settled in waiting for the Dr who was coming in at 7 AM Still was getting contractions and some were stronger than others. When the Dr came I told her about my contractions and she said lets see and I was 4-5 cm dilated! So I think if I wasn't going to induced he still would of been born that day. I started being induced alittle after 7:30 AM. She started me off slowly and the nurse uped it every 30 mins. The contractions started getting more intense and I knew that the time was getting closer. Water still didn't break. I went to the bathroom at a certain point noticing I had the urge to push so I did while no one was looking. I kept pushing when I had to and just as I was going to call for the nurse to tell her I have to push cause I could feel his head down there and she walked in. As soon as I said I have to push my water broke! I kept on pushing by myself as she got the Dr. So I got on the bed and the Dr. let me continue to push on my own! I wish you could of seen it, I was doing everything myself while they were getting their stuff on. All the Dr really did was catch him and I sort of helped too! I almost got away w/ no tearing or anything but Tanner's hand came out w/ his head scratching me, what she called a custom tear so I got acouple 2-3 stiches He was born sunny side up at 9:27AM, about 2 hrs after my induction and no pain meds! He weighed 7pds 8oz and is 20" tall. He has alittle jaundice. He is such a cutie! I can't believe he's here and I did all the work myself! W/ my others I had to hold my knees and have someone hold my feet and this time I just layed as comfortable as I could get and pushed him out. It is an experience I'll never forget!
