Labor Story
Posted: 01-10-05 18:20pm

My labor story! (:

my turnnnnnnnn.

Okay so I was geting up to fix my pillows 'cuz my back was hurting and I felt a gush come out. I didn't mind 'cuz I thought it was plain ol' discharge or something. So I go to the banyo 'cuz it felt like I had to take a caca .. But nothing came out. Then when I wiped there was like peachy fluid with some blood. -- 500

i laid back down and asked my grandma what it felt like when her water broke and if it was only a little, 'cuz I expected much much more fluid to gush out. Then I started feeling contractions so I got my hospital bag.. Called al and we left. 530

got to the hospital at 6 and at 630 they gave me a room. I started feeling really the contractions stronger but I wasn't like..Complaining, I just tried not to think about it.

They checked me and I was 5 cm dialated already, the nurses were shocked and said I was lucky, since this is my first baby and I was already 5cm.. She was saying how usually other patients come in and they're only like a finger tip dialated.

So they start my iv. Okay let me tell you.. That is the worst shot of all next to the epidural. The epidural suuuuuuuuuuucked! It hurt. Whoever says the epidural does not hurt are lucky biznitches 'cuz that caca huuuuuuurrrt. I moaning like omg..Is it over? I could feel it comming in my spine and crap and blah. It sucked.

So after that I was dead numb. It was hilarious trying to move 'cuz I couldnt.. At all. I felt nothing.

So I slept..And then at like 130 I was already 9cm. I had bulging membranes but the bag wasn't fully broken so they broke it for me.

I slept more .. Then umm I think around 245 something they brought me to the delivery room t oget started on the pushing. I was pushing for a little bit..Just umm .. Pre pushing I guess? Cuz of the contractions. They started getting really painful..And I was laying on my side and I was like omg I can't do this.. My back hurts. So I was like call the nurse 'cuz my back hurts so much.

They gave me oxygen from pushing so much and I felt like I couldn't breathe 'cuz my back was hurting. So they switch me onto my back and my legs are up on the thingers and i'm pushing away. The doctor comes and he cuts me and everyones yelling push push push. It was great.. I felt nothing at all and I was just pushing away. It was soooo easy. I remember 5 strong pushes and she was out. I don't even remember what happened.

So at 357 pm kaila angela nipal is born. 8lbs flat and 19 and a quarter inches.

They lay her on me and I just remember crying. Like..Wow ..That's my baby. I was just crying and blah yeah. I'm such a baby.

The most painful part of the delivery was the placenta..He was like..Wow..I dunno but my doctor was pushing on my tummy so hard. It hurt so much I was screaming my ass off! Yeah you'd think i'd be screaming while im delivering the baby not the placenta but that caca hurt.

So I started having a panic attack for some reason. I was freaking out and was like having a seizure..I couldn't stop shaking and screaming and crying, so they gave me a shot to put me to sleep. I was so drugged up asking the most stupid questions..Hahahaha.

The worst part about giving birth is the stitches. Cuz wow. Mine hurt so much. I can't get up or aanyyyyyyyyyyything. I feel like a bad mom 'cuz I make al get up and check on her and hold her and everything. But blah. It sucks. Damn stitches.

I think that's pretty much it. I can't sit for long 'cuz it hurts. I'll be back! With pictures! Promise!

Congrats, kai! I'm more scared of labor than anything else and it really helps to hear what other girls went thru instead of having everyone tell me their horror stories about what they or some friend of theirs went through.

I loved how you said you cried when they laid kai on you. I know i'm gonna cry and think the same thing when it's my turn.

Thanks for the labor story and congrats!

Congrats ka, im glad everything went okay, and you have a beautiful precisous little angel there. She is adorable. How did the birth certificate and everything go. Im glad it all worked out for you. The stitches is the episotomy that will hurt for a little not to long though just make sure you do the sitz baths and stuff they really help. Did they give you some whitch hazel pads to help also? Well I hope everythng goes well for you both hun. Good luck to being a mommy you have a long road ahead of you.

Kaaaaaaa remember I was sooo scared about that. And you told me it was just a little prick, and I felt so happpy. Now im frickin freaking scared. Well you lived, and I will too I guess. Im sorrry you hurt now. I would take all the pain away if I could. But those are your battle wounds for your little girl, shes so...Angelic. I showed my mom her picture and she was like 'omg she is so cute' and for like a hour she kept saying 'your friends little baby is so cute huh shell, she must have had dark hair huh, does she have dark hair, her baby has alot of hair huh' I was like ya mom, sshhhh.
