It was May 10th Mother's day to be exact at 3a.m 40 weeks pregnant. I was so hungry so me and my husband decides to go to Jack in the Box. I was already cramping but didn't think nothing of it. As we were driving the contractions got even more tense to the point I was like okay forget the food we need to go to the hospital.When I got there they put a contraction monitor and a fetal heart monitor on my tummy. She then checked my cervix and I had dilated a whole 5cm so they moved me on to the delivery room. When I got there I decided I wanted an epidural (I chickened out of the natural birth) The epidural wasn't as easy as I thought. But once he finished I felt soooo lovely. We did have a bit if complications because when I lay on my left side her heart rate drops really low but when I lay on my right side her heart rate goes back up. When the nurse came back in I dilated to 8cm. She then gave me something to speed up contractions after awhile I was fine until I felt all the pressure in my butt lol the nurse came back in and it was time to push. 30 mins later baby G'ana LeMae Reeves was here 7lbs and 1oz
