First Baby GirlšŸ˜ā¤ļø

Eureka

Background: I was previously a mother of 4 boys born March 2010, December 2012, January 2016 & January 2017.

I tried to hold off having sex with my boyfriend because with the last two kids I went into labor at 37 weeks after intercourse - but it didnā€™t work that way šŸ˜‚

We had sex the night of November 18 and I fell asleep.. He woke me up to let me know I had bled a little & I shrugged it off like okay.. At 2am I started having contractions but was able to sleep through them fine, so I didnā€™t bother getting up..

Around 5am it was to the point I couldnā€™t sleep through it so I began to time & they were about 4 minutes apart.. But it was too early to get all of my kids up so I waited it out even as they progressed..

Around 7am he finally told me ā€˜you need to call your mom to get the kids so we can go to the hospital before you have her hereā€™šŸ˜‚ So we got the kids ready and got dressed.. Once i got to the car the contractions kicked up & oh man I could have killed himšŸ˜‚ I was just to the point of ā€œdonā€™t talk to me, donā€™t question me ; Iā€™m fine JUST DRIVEšŸ˜‚ā€

When we arrived to the hospital it was 8am they took me to a triage room instead of labor and delivery šŸ™„ Mind you I had already told the intake nurse I was having contractions 4 minutes apart since 5am & I generally have fast labors.. The nurse finally came back in to check me at 8:15 & her eyes got wide as she told me I wasnā€™t going anywhere because I was 7cmšŸ˜±.. My boyfriend gets this silly grin across his face like omg sheā€™s coming today.. And proceeds to call and let everyone know lol..

When I finally got moved to L&D; the contractions were back to back and unbearable .. I requested IV medication but the nurse couldnā€™t get the IV right in my hand (Iā€™m still firm on the idea she was just stalling bc she didnā€™t want to give them to be being so far along in the process).. And I just criedšŸ˜‚ Like the contractions werenā€™t letting up, the nurse kept poking me for nothing & I just boohooā€™d.. Amy boyfriend tried to console me the best he couldnā€™t and I really couldnā€™t ask for more at the time..

I got the urge to push around 8:50 and the nurse said I still had a little cervix there and my wares hadnā€™t broke but I could do a test push to try and get the ball rolling.. After that push she said everything was a go & we welcomed our beautiful baby girl into the work at 8:56am on November 19,2017 (originally due December 10)..

She is 2 weeks today and I am still so so in LOVEšŸ˜ā¤ļøšŸ’•
