It was early Sunday Morning, about 5 AM. My stomach was killing me, I was up all night in and out of pain. At this time I knew something was wrong. The pain was coming even more fast than before. Trying to let my partner get rest I tried to sleep my pain off until about 10 AM. It was invulnerable! I woke him up and told him "It's time" I called my mother and told her to meet us there. When I got to the hospital, we were told that there's an infection in the fluid around the baby and we weren't going home today. I cried. I was worried about my birth but happy I was going to meet my prince soon. With the infection, I got a fever and my baby's heart rate kept rising. Neither would regulate so I was pushed into having a C-Section. After being in labor for 8 hours, July 12th, 2015 at 8:51 PM I met my baby boy, Joseph London Palmer. I cried and couldn't wait to hold him. I was truly blessed. He's the best thing to happen to me!
