Home With Lil' Emma

Hi, I was having contractions off and on all day on tues and then when I started making supper for the fam they got regular, by 6 they were 5 min apart, we sat down and ate, and I told hubby that I was going to go and take a shower and get ready because I think this is it....And I got ready we go tthe neighbor to watch the girls. We left about 12 min after 8 pm, we got in the waiting room for labor and delivery at 853 pm and my contractions were already 2 min apart in the truck on the way. We had to wait to be called back, when they finally got me back there and checked me I was 7-8 cm dilated,so they ivd me and moved me to a delivery room, contractions were kicking my as s but no time for drugs, hurt like hell, had the baby at 1010pm, seemed like forever, even though it wasn't. I was a screamer though!!! They thought I wasn't gonna catch on too fast when they told me to push with my breath instead of screaming with it, but I wanted those contractions over, so with the next one I got it right and they didn't even have their gloves all the way on when her head started coming out, it was soooo painful. She weighed 8 lbs and 15.6 oz (the nurse said if she hadn't peed right b4 she was weighed she would have been 9lbs) imagine a 9 lbs bowling bowl searing hot being pushed out from there.............Anywazy, this is wearing me out, my back is killing me from the pushing (you sure do push harder when you can feel it!))) later girls

Thank you everyone
yeah they asked if I wanted an epi and I said yeah but I wasn;t going to get it
i really wanted it!!!!

The other two were longer labors, but I did have the epi and it really makes a difference, I told my husaband that if rheana would have came this way w/o the drugs, she would be an only child!!!!

I got home today and made supper (not thanksgiving though Sad ) for the family or was it lunch? Who knows, washed the diches and now I am doing laundry. Ugh, time to go to bed yet???? Shocked

Hey momma! Congratulations! She is gorgeous. Who does she look like? I think rheana, but I haven't seen a really good shot of her face yet. Anyway, congrats on the no drugs! I never had an epi, so I don't know what it's like, but people have told me it's easier for you to get going again afterwards. What do you think? Girl, I can't believe you made dinner, washed dishes, washed clothes, and had the nerve to talk about the floors!!!!!!!!!! You better lay your little butt down and rest! You've still got some adrenaline left, but it's going to run out soon. I know you know this, you have more babies than me, but why don't you follow directions? I'm so glad your home, and you and baby are healthy.
