Question

Hey ladies!!! Let's hear some birth stories & when you delivered your little miracles ?! ❤️👶🏽🙏🏼

Answer

My 1st son was 3/19/2012 weighing 8lbs12oz at 39 weeks, induced with an 18hr labor  :)
My 2nd son was also induced at 39 weeks, 6/8/2013, with a 7hr labor weighing 9lbs 13.2oz (easiest delivery)
My 3rd son again induced at 39 weeks on 8/17/2014 with an 8hr labor coming in 8lbs4oz (most painful deliver pushing at 8cm due to me hemmorging)

All 3 were 100% pain medication free♡

Expecting our 1st daughter beginning of June. Hoping to let her come on her own without an induction unless our midwife thinks otherwise :)

Answer

Born on Halloween! 10/31/15, 10:13am at 6lbs 12 oz and 19 1/2in long! She was due 11/13, my water broke Friday night as I laid down in bed after my last shift at work before maternity leave lol. (Hairstylist) I had a whopping 3 hours of 'down time' lol. Water broke on its own, 11:30pm, contractions started and were close together, dr sent me in to L&d. I was already 5cm when I got to the hospital @ 2am. By 9:45am I was fully dilated and pushed her out at 10:13am. I did have an epidural at 5/6 cm but my contractions were totally tolerable, I just didn't want to feel everything down there in case of episiotomy (which I did get), but feel I could have done without it if I hadn't had that fear. I was a little too numb and couldn't feel where to push, so we stopped the epidural so I could get some feeling back before pushing. I was only at the hospital for 8 hours before she came, had an easy labor, recovery wasn't bad at all, just sore down there, but no problem being up and walking myself to the bathroom/showering etc. I'm hoping to calm the nerves of other FTM who are scared about going into labor. It isn't always the hectic, painful scenario that we see on tv!

I was due with both my girls on a Monday and they both came on Fridays. Five years a part. I always thought that was kinda weird. Lol

Answer

My due date with my son was Oct 20th 2013.
I seen my doc Oct 18th she stripped my cervix. The next day I woke up at 10 am and felt a pop. I looked at my bf and said "oh, that felt funny, stupid bones popping" he got up to go to the bathroom and my mom came in and laid on my bed. We started talking about the day and what we were gonna do. Well I sat up and leaned against the wall still continuing to talk. Eventually I told her I felt a pop, her eyes widened and said "stand up that was probably your water breaking" I said "no cause I would have gushed or something" she said "not everyone gushes" So to amuse her I stood up and nothing happened. I sat back down and talked for another 20 min. All of a sudden I felt my under wear soak up. I looked at her and said "what is on my underwear?" She started to freak "omg ericka's water broke" we get to the hospital at a little after 11am and I get put in a room and as soon as I laid down there came the gush. They put the iv in my hand and turned on the pitocin. I was fine until 9pm that night; that's when the contractions hit hard. I had them the rest of the night into the next morning. The 20th They gave me a tiny bit of meds maybe 3 times that whole time and it didn't help. I finally hit a 10 at 745pm and started to push. He got stuck at one point but I continued to push him out. Oct 20th at 9:24pm my son was finally born at 7 pnds 14 oz 19 in long!
