My birth story!

My entire pregnancy I was drinking raspberry leaf tea, working out, and bouncing on the ball-- determined to have a fabulous delivery, one morning I woke up and felt normal, totally normal, hubby and I went to the gym, came home and showered and proceeded to bounce on my ball... Around 11am I had minor minor cramps that I really had on and off the whole second and third trimester but when I wiped I noticed I was bleeding a little so I called my dr and they told me to time them, when I started after a few hours I realized, they were 3 minutes apart! I got to the dr office around 330, they checked me and confirmed I was 4cm dilated- and sent me to the hospital (I needed an IV of antibiotics prior to babies arrival) we had plans on a natural birth, so I got in the tub and labored for a while, then I decided to get out so that I could walk, contractions got more intense, they checked me and said I was at 6cm and I just about died thinking "OMG, this is actually going to get worse?!" Lol... So I opted for the shower so I could stand and sway with my hubby by my side, then contractions were so bad I could barely stand so I opted for the tub again, well first contraction in the tub I jumped up (I had terrible back labor!) and realized there was just no freaking way that I could be sitting down with the amount of pain I was in, I begged the nirse for nubane-- as I dried off and got back toThe chord was around his neck but there were no issues as they were able to undo it so quickly that he cried almost immediately- a weird thing was that the chord broke off of the placenta as soon as he came out so they had to give me pitocin just to deliver the placenta... But I did and all was ok:) Abram Benjamin my greatest blessing 💙
