labor story and tips on no pain meds

My baby is still in the nicu so I've been late for the labor story since i was already 3cm dilated and 41 weeks I got induced around 3:00 on sat contractions where coming but painless so they gave me a higher dose of pitocin around 6 the contractions finally started getting more intense but still tolerable at 9:45 they checked me I was 4 cm in 30 mins I told my nurse I feel like I have to poop she said she was going to check me and I was at 8/9 cm and the baby was coming they quickly called my doc who had left the hospital she had just enough time to put on her gloves and within less than 10 pushes he was out for anyone getting induced don't believe the it's horrible and painful trust your body you can do it keep a partners who is going to really encourage you for me it was my boyfriend  I was really calm my whole labor I didn't cry at all and when it finally did get painful it only lasted 15 mins I had no epidural it's my first baby my baby had fluid in his lung so he is in the nicu for the next week recoverinformation bit getting better each day I trust and thank God for him
