my labor story

Sooo, on Thursday February 12, 2015, my husband and I along with the in laws were looking at cars, and we're out all day! After my mother in law got her new car which took all day long, we went to olive garden to eat. Before we even went to olive garden I told them I was having contractions, and they all thought it was because I was hungry and said to wait it out. By the time we got to olive garden, my contractions were really starting to pick up. I couldn't eat or anything! My mother in law started timing theM and they were 4-5 mins apart, so we called the Dr. She said go to the hospital and we did. By the time I got there I was already at a 4 and 80% effaced. They said well, your having a baby! I got in my room, and waited and took as much pain as I could before I got anything to take it away! After my epideral I felt amazing. So I tried to get some sleep. When my Dr came in at 7 am she broke my water and checked me. After she broke my water things started moving faster. She also put a drip to get labor going faster. By all that, I had the feeling like I needed to push right then and there so the nurse checked me and I was ready! After 30 mins of pushing, my baby boy was here! At 9:31 am on February 13th, Tyler John was brought into this world! Weighing 7lbs 2oz, and 20.5 in long! He is more than perfect and has a head full of hair! I love him more than anything!

Thank you guys! We get to go home in the morning! The Dr says he's perfect and very healthy! He's the best thing to have seriously ever happen to me and he's such a good baby! He barley cries and he sleeps good! My milk is also starting to come in which is great because I've been having to give him a bottle and I don't like that. Only thing that ***** is your nipples get very sore and you cramp really bad from it. I also ended up getting some stitches because I tore so if that happens to you just take an easy.
