On July 3rd I thought my water had broke ended up in L&D so they could check me. Turns out I was still at 2cm, 50% effaced and at a station -2 with my water not broken. I was told pretty much don't hold your breath cause this baby isn't ready and won't be ready for another week. We came home went to bed and I woke up around 3:30ish with annoying hip pain! As I was dosing back off I heard what sounded like a balloon pop in my belly! I jumped up and this time it was 100% my water! Woke Aaron and Rylee up cause I knew it was time. I have heard after your water breaks you can hang out at home for a bit and there isn't usually a rush. Not for me!! As soon as it broke I was having contractions 3 mins apart..
I knew this baby was coming fast! I got to the hospital and before we could park I jumped out of the car and walked straight in. I just kept telling people "how can someone do this without drugs and why do women choose to do this to themselves?"by the time I got to my room and her the anesthesiologist talk about risks and what not I looked at the nurse and said "it's time to push get this epi in me." she checked me and all she saw was head and said to me "sorry but you have to do this natural" Couple pushes and this sweet little angel arrived. 7lb 13oz 20.5 inches. A total of 1hr and 8 mins since my water broke! It was an amazing yet very unexpected delivery!
All the nurses and staff were amazing and made me feel so comfortable that this whole process was happening without drugs.
We are so in love with this sweet baby girl and Rylee so far has been a perfect big sister!
