My Labor Story! :)

Yesterday morning I went to the dr for a normal checkup, I was 39w6d, & while she was checking me my water broke all over her. I was 4-5cm dilated. She sent me straight to the hospital, I went in planning on an all natural birth, but within 10mins of my contractions starting I was desperate for an epidural, itn was simply amazing once it kicked in because that was the absolute worse pain I've ever been in!!! So I arrived at the hospital at 10:20 & was ready to start pushing at 5:30. I was in labor for 9hrs & ended up pushing for an exhausting 2hrs! Little man was turned sideways & once I finally got him unstuck from my pubic bone he had to be vacuumed out along with a nurse pushing down on my belly, I even had to be put on oxygen, & I was minutes away from having to have a c section. Luckily I finally got him pushed out & I was cut & tore,  but Jonathan Timothy Jr arrived at 7:11pm weighing in at 7lbs 1oz & 21 inches long & he's absolutly perfect, I'm sooo in love!! :)
