had my baby girl!

At 35 weeks today :) Went into triage because my back was hurting, and I figured they were fake labor pains. She gave me an iv to stop the contractions (she thought I was dehydrated) and when that didn't work, she checked me and I was fully dilated! Then she put me in a room and baby girl was born about 20 minutes later. No pain meds, no epidural, pushed for less than 10 minutes and she was here :) 4 pounds 12 ounces and  16 inches long. she is tiny but perfect and healthy! :)

Labor is honestly not that bad, I didn't even know I was in labor! Lol she checked me and I was fully dilated. 20 minutes later he broke my water and about 7 minutes later she was born :) just make sure you have your diaper bag packed WELL ahead of time. We don't have any clothes for her here because we didn't have a bag packed
