He's here!!! Long!!

Today was my due date.. But I had my son 6 days ago <3 I started getting contractions that hurt and regular at Walmart last Friday night. At about 9:30.. Well when i was on my way home they stopped, so I was like maybe it was a false alarm.. Well my mom said just in case they start back up I'm gonna jump in the shower. And then they started coming back and I laid down and all of a sudden I felt like I just peed myself without peeing.. So I told my mom and my water broke at 11:00!!! So we grabbed all the bags and headed for the hospital.. On the way there I was in so much pain :/ I was asking my mom when they can give you the epidural!! And I was totally against it!! Well we got to hospital and they didn't even make sure it was my water rhank god! No duck bill (haven't had it yet) and I got admitted!! :-) then as soon as I was admitted I was begging for the epidural!! The nurse checked me right before I was admitted and I was 3 1/2 cm dilated (12:00ish)  then I got rechecked around 1am and I was 7 cm dilated!!! So I got the epidural, and I LOVED IT!! And I had my son 6:00am <3 it went fast!! His heart rate keep dropping to the 50s so we thought maybe id need a emergency c section!! But after every contraction he would recover so we waited it out and I pushed around 45 mins !! And when he came out he ripped the umbilical cord so my mom couldn't cut it and he pulled the placenta out!! It was so scary not knowing why blood was going everywhere!!! But he is a healthy boy <3 totally a well behaved baby. He was 7 pounds 3 ounces and 21 inches long!! Now he is 6 pounds 15 ounces and 19 inches long( had a bad cone head lol) and he left the hospital at 6 pounds 12 ounces! So I put on some ounces in 2 days!! Sorry it was so long but wanted to share!! Good luck to all you mommys that are expecting!!
