OK, so I started feeling a really tight cramping feeling on Sunday at 4:30 in the morning. I didn’t tell my mom until 1:00 when I noticed they were getting closer.

About 2 hours later, they were 5 minutes apart! I thought wow, this is easy!! So then at 5:30, we went to the hospital and they checked me and said I was at 3 cm and they were going to keep me for an hour to see if I was progressing. So an hour later, they checked me again and I was at 4 cm. They said I could stay! Around 8:30, my boyfriend got there.  Sunday night went and Monday morning came and still no baby! Finally on Monday at 10:30, I was only 6 cm and they decided to go ahead and break my water. In the afternoon, my labor all of a sudden stopped. The contractions were at 6 min apart and I wasn’t progressing at all. So they had to start me on Pitocin. After that, I stayed at 8 cm for about 6 hours. And finally, at 10 on Monday night, I decided to get an epidural since I wasn’t progressing any and was dead tired! That really helped! Then at about 1 in the morning, they said I could push! I was soooo freakin happy! So I pushed and it didn’t hurt as much as he crowned it was more the EXTREME urge to have a bowel movement! They told me to only push with a contraction but I would get the urge to push without the contraction and I was just so stubborn that they let me push when I needed too.  So I pushed for 2 hours long and then Trevor James Joined us. 🙂

So I was in labor for almost 3 days. :O
