I gave birth at 37.1 weeks. He was born on memorial day. I started having real contractions around 1pm. I bounced on my ball and took a shower then headed to the hospital around 3pm. When I arrived I was already at 5cm!! I waa dilating quick and it was painful so I asked for an epidural. The doctor fucked that up 3 times before getting it right but by then it was too late and i felt the urge to push. My son was out in 2 pushes 😍. I had no rips and didnt need any stitches.
