got to the hospital at 5:30am, dialated at 6 cms, contractions were in groups of 2 about 1-2 mins appart. I was hyperventilating due to pain level and not enought time to breath between sets.

Around 10:30 am they got me into a birthing room and got me the first epidural and some other pain meds, i was still only 6 cms. Finally able to breath.

Around 1 they realized my contractions were weaking out and becoming irregular, gave me something to make them stronger and more consistent again.

Around 2 they broke my water. I was still sitting at 6.5 cms. They turned up the meds to make contractions and my epidural started to not work. So they replaced the bag and gave me some other pain meds.

They played around like that till 9pm when i was finally fully dialed, i pushed for 3 hours and baby and i were getting worn out.

He was stuck with his head side ways and they couldnt turn it. He also wasnt fitting past my pelvic bone.

Doctor called it and said we need a csection.

Baby was born at 12:10am. 22 inches and 9.3 pounds.
