tell your birth story

I was having slight contractions on the night of 10/24/16. They weren't to bad at all I could easy ignore them. But on 10/25/16 at 8am they were getting stronger and I could definitely feel them for sure being 5-3 minutes apart. At 10 that morning I was telling my boyfriend we should go see my doctor. I live about 1hr away from a hospital that could deliver and he wasn't feeling good so that's when we called his mom. We headed out at 11:15. the whole way I was super uncomfortable, I felt nauseous and I was in pain and I had a huge head ache. We got to the hospital at 12:20. We got checked in and the nurse said it doesn't look like you're in labor go home. We went to get food and some other things from Walmart. Keep in mind I'm in pain it hurts to walk. And the nurse says to go home. I was in pain for hours taking hot baths to ease the pain and drinking hot tea. At 9:30 they were so bad they made me cry and couldn't sleep it off or do anything to ease my pain. I didn't even know my boyfriend was keeping track of my contractions but he was told his mom they were 1-2 minutes apart and they took me once again to the hospital. This time it was a different nusres she got me all ready and checked me I was 7cm dilated and she told me I was in labor. I told her the other nurse sent me home because she said I wasn't and said she didn't know why. They asked if I wanted the epidural, I said yes because I didn't know how bad the pain was going to at the time it was bearable but I was tired and I didn't want pain. I was there for hours I had a habit of moving to my left said and the nurse kept telling not to but my back hurt. I called my parents and they were coming to see. When they got there I tried getting up and I moved and I couldn't feel my left leg at all and my right just felt a little asleep. I didn't like the feeling of not feeling my legs and I was getting bad anxiety. plus not to mention I have panic and anxiety disorder. I was getting so anxious that I wanted to walk and when couldn't I had a bad panic attack my boyfriend looks at his mom and says what do I do and was getting scared cause he didn't know how to calm me down. I was so scared and then I realized feeling and stimulation on my leg calmed me down so my boyfriend, my mom and the nurse were wiggling my legs but doing it my legs felt tingling but I targeted that then to not feel them at all 2 minutes later they called the doctor and had me ouch I was pushing for an 30 to 40 minutes my mom and boyfriend by my side My mom was actually the one assisting my birth my boyfriend cut the cord, which he said was really squishy. my daughter was born at 10:39am on 10/26/16. They throw her on me and my reaction was to cry. She wasn't making any sound though or breathing. I got really scared the nurse took her from me and two other nurses were looking at my baby girl. Finally I heard her cry and breath but her breathing was weird it sounded like she was having a hard time they took her down to labs and X-rays. I saw her an hour later she was fine just some of the Amino fluid went to her lungs. I honestly fell in love right when I met her. My Claire
