Here's my story!!! I was scheduled to be induced today but  I started having contractions at 6:40am and could not make it to the hospital I was being induced at so I went to the closet hospital. My contractions were five mines apart and my pain was horrible. I asked for an epidural right away but couldn't get it until the IV was started and I took in enough fluids. The Epidural hurt to get started but was worth it. After getting it doctors broke my water and I was ready to push in a hour. Even after getting the epidural I still felt everything. I was in labor 4 hours and 47 minutes and pushed for 8 minutes. I love her! And so blessed she healthy!
