Birth Announcement!!

I was 40w5d abd tired of being pregnant so the night of April 2nd at 4:30pm I took 2 tablespoons of castor oil (gross) then I took 2 more at 6:30pm. At 11pm I woke up to bad intestinal cramps (or so I thought) and went poo multiple times until midnight. By 4am the cramps hadn't stopped and we're getting worse. The pain was all down low, nothing in my actual belly so I thought I just had to poo more. By 6am they were two minutes apart lasting one minute. We get to the hospital and I'm 6cm, 90% effaced! I asked for a little pain relief but NO epidural. They gave me Nubain. Two hours later I'm starting to push and my waters break! My OB comes in and I push her out in 15 minutes!! Her shoulders got stuck for just a second and I had a second degree tear but she's so beautiful and I'm so glad my delivery went so smoothly! 😍💞
