Aa
My beautiful baby has arrived!:)
Not a question, just an announcement! I had Ezekiel Javier on Thursday November 8th at 11:54 AM, three days before my due date!:) He was 4 pounds 15 ounces and 19 inches long! I had been having.contractions since 10 Tuesday night, and finally went in Thursday morning at 7 when they were less than 2;minutes apart. I was at a 4 when i arrived at 7, then was at a 6 when they checked me at 8. I had manageable contractions until about 10:30 when my doctor decided to break my bulging water because it wasnt happening itself, and my contractions picked up in intensity and duration
I felt like i had to push and my nurses told me No, because my doctor wasnt even in the hospital. They checked me and said not to push because my cervix wasnt completely dilated. I couldnt not push, my body decided to do its own thing! My nurse checked me again about a minute later because i told her i had to push, and she said "He's rigjt there!" She called my doctor and said "Get.over here NOW!" my doctor didnt have time to change at all! He stuck out his arms, slid his arms in, and I was pushing away! I pushed 7 times and he was here! I was pushing for less than 2 minutes! His blood sugar was 27 when he arrived, so he had a feeding tube for the first two days or so. I was in the hospital until Monday so they could make sure his blood sugar stabilized and stayed there. They took his tube out Sunday! And he is feeding like a champ:) Perfect latching on and feeding, I'm so glad everything is okay now. The worst feelimg ever is seeing your baby in pain or unhealthy/: Worst moment of my life when he came out and was blue and purple and my doctor took him away before I could see him. Labor wasnt bad for me, thankfully! Any of you ladies out.there.who want to have a medicine-free labor, feel free to message me! Child birth can kiss my butt, because I did it with no medicine whatsoever, even with everyone discouraging me.

Thanks alyringy!:) And Steph, thank.you also! I did absolutely nothing to start labour because I was actually hoping for him to get here today Haha And I didn't feel the 'ring of fire', I just felt lots and lots of pressure and stretching. It did burn, but it didn't bother me that bad. Not sure if it just doesn't hurt, or if it just didn't hurt to me. And everything was pretty bearable to me. But again, I'm not sure if they just don't hurt that bad or if it just didn't hurt to me Lol I don't have a high pain tolerance, but it was like a breeze to me. The only.bad part was my contractions after he broke my water because that's when they get more intense, and because my baby was sunny side up! His stomach to my stomach, my contractions came three at once, staying intense for the length of three, and then relaxing back down. But even that was bearable to me.
:-0 well first off congrats on your new baby boy. Glad to hear everything is ok now. Did you do anything to start off labor? Did you feel the "ring of fire"? Was the pain somewhat bearable? I'm 34+4 and I'm getting anxious and excited.
