9 hour labor /my labor story

Alison
So Tuesday night I went in at 5:30 to be induced . At 6 my dr checked me I was 4 cm and soft . Which was great . Started potocin at 7 ish . Water broke at 10:30 . I got pain meds around 11:00-11:15 . Slept for maybe an hour and woke up screaming . The meds wore off . Asked for more and was told I can't have any till 4 am . Asked for an EPI . Nope. Already 9 cm. so I labored until 2:29 with no pain meds ad all back labor . Owwwww . I ripped in 2 spots so now I have stitches . WELL WORTH IT . I love my little girl . 7.9 pounds 20 inches long as a head full of hair .
