My Labor Story <3

i was induced April 1st started pitocin at 12am being 3.5 Cms at 5 am I was already at 5 Cms doctor ripped my water bag at 8am. By 10:25 I was 7/8 and having the strongest contractions an hour later I was 8.5 telling my husband I couldn't take it any longer I was so willing to give up and get the epidural gladly when nurse came to check me she said you are at 9.5 Cms. They began prepping everything and within ten minutes I was fully dilated ready to push my Lil man into this world. Three strong pushes and my adorable baby was born weighting 7lbs 7 ounces 19 3/4…I'm grateful for being able to have him100% naturally. These ten years were so worth the wait!!  Ladies thank you for all the support with this wonderful and helpful app. I wish you all the best :-)

I so wish I could have done it naturally!!! But I was in SO much pain and my son wasn't dropping and I was stuck at a 6 so after 25+ hours (at a birthing center) I finally went to the hospital and got an epidural and I was in heaven. I seriously loved it. Then after 11 hours of that he still wasn't dropping so I had to get a c section. I was a little bummed but it was a good experience for me. I'm 9 weeks with baby number 2 and I'm thinking of having a repeat c section cuz my pelvis is SO small I couldn't even fit a 7 pound baby through. Haha

That is awesome! I also had both my baby boys completely natural and I'm planning my next one in July! I'm not nearly as nervous this time as I was the first 2 times. It is so wonderful hearing other moms' success stories with natural birth. It gives me more hope that I can do it again, even though as it gets closer I do get more nervous. Congrats mama!!
