labor story !!

Okay, so at 2:08am i was about to go to sleep finally, i hadn't had any contractions for days so i have up on him coming on time but while i was laying down i felt a little trickle of water so i Jumped up thinking peed on myself & while i was rushing to the bathroom a lot of fluid just started coming out so i literally freaked out because my mom was gone lol but my cousin called the ambulance, i arrived at L&D around 2:45am , they checked to make sure it was my water but if course it was because it just wouldn't stop cooking out! My mom arrived right before they moved me to a room. I got into the tub for a while still no contractions really but when i got out they started coming & painfully. Around 5am i was 5cm & didn't change for a while soooo they gave me pitocin , after that i asked for meds so i can sleep, i woke up with really painful contractions & she checked me i was 7cm at this point i couldn't deal so i asked for the epidural , after that i slept on & off , i had to lay on my sides because baby was turned the wrong way, at about 1:25pm i felt a lot of pressure & pain from contractions (my nurse who i love turned off the medicine so id know when it was time to push without telling me) she checked me & it was finally time! My son arrived at 1:43pm with in only 4 pushes! He was 7 pounds 10 ounces of adorable-ness lol . It took him 41 seconds to breathe OMG my heart stopped for those seconds. But my bundle of joy is finally here & i couldn't be more in love. Born November 12th 2014 :) sorry for the long story
