Labor Story!

So I started out with cramping on Wednesday night and thought itd go away. Thursday cramping was still there and started to get stronger by 1pm I was able to time them at 7 mins apart. At 7pm I went for a walk and then was able to time them at 4mins apart. I went in around 10:30 hoping that theyd keep me. Getting to the hospital I had really strong contractions but was at 4cm and they wouldnt let me stay until 5cm. I walked for an hr and opened to a 5, I was admitted and decided to walk some more which helped me get to a 6 within an hr. The nurse came and said they break my water but it wasnt blodging so we had to wait. At 4 they came again and checked me and I was about 7-8cm and they could finally break my water. After that I just lost it the pain was unbearable with contractions every minute. I decided to go all natural and I knew ibwasnt going to change my mind. Babies head was stuck so the nurse had to help get it out of idont remember the name I was too busy screaming. My heart beat and babies started to drop after 30 mins of pushing, the put an oxygen mask on and the doc came and told me he was going to come me so they could use the vacuum, I have two more big pushes and he was out. He weighed 7lb 7 oz and was 20 1/2. His name is Joshua Mateo and he is absolutely adorable. Born on 10/31 same day as my induction but was able to dodge it. Labor was a crazy experience and honestly dont plan on having another baby for a while lol.
