🤭 what a adventure

So I wrote a short one but now I have time to fully explain what happened on June 1st 2018.

Couple days before I had the worst discharge it was my mucas plug coming out in chunks and it was horrible. Leading up to my water braking I had no sign of labor besides my mucas plug but that don’t even tell you when your going to be in labor.I felt fine my due date was June 3rd and I didn’t even think he was going to come on his due date! I was wrong .....

JUNE 1st

5am- I woke up to literally what felt like a kick to my vagina and all I felt was a burst. I sit there for a second trying to comprehend what’s going on. I quickly realized that my water broke!! 😯 I calmly tapped on my significant others shoulder and quietly say “babe, my water broke” I don’t think I ever seen him move so fast to get outta bed as he continues to say “Really?, ya lying” “did it really”

I smile and get up to go clean myself up and say “yeah babe calm down” 😂

I couldn’t move from the toilet my water just kept gushing out so I asked my man to grab my phone so I could call my ob. I have never seen him so anxious and excited and nervous all at the same time.So I call her and let her know that my water broke and she’s still asleep she said okay well I’ll see you when your contractions are 5 mins apart. I’m already counting and at around 5:45 they were 10 mins apart. I felt fine they weren’t bad at all. I’m thinking wow this is a beeeze 🤭 boy was I wrong! So I get off the phone and listen to what my ob said she told me to grab some food take a shower and relax.

6:15 I’m now getting a little worried my contractions are now 9 mins apart and I’m about 25 mins away from hospital my first baby 🤷🏻‍♀️ I have no idea what in store so I’m getting anxious contractions aren’t to bad still but I had a feeling he was coming soon so I tell my significant other that I wanted to get closer to hospital so I decide to go to my moms house down the street from where I was delivering. We stop at dunks I grab a coffee & a English muffin and we’re on our way my contractions are getting closer and closer I’m now at 7 1/2 min apart. I get upstairs to take a shower get all my clothes of because I’m soaked from my water continuing to gush out!! and my mother tells me there’s a issue with hot water 😑 so no shower for me!! so I get dressed and try to relax but nope these contractions are just getting way to close I talked to my ob and let her know there now 7 mins apart and she non-chalantly says your still not at a five keep relaxing and I’ll see you this afternoon🧐 I hang up and think to myself this afternoon?? What is she crazy. I tell my man we need to get closer to the hospital I’m feeling the contractions a little more and it’s starting to hit me I’m about to have a baby. & I know he’s coming soon!!

8am we arrive at hospital & I go ask the front desk we’re the food court is I’m clearly in labor at this point the front desk ladies laugh and point me in the direction so this fat prego lady can eat some food to get some energy to push out my baby. I get down stairs and I have my phone counting my contractions I’m now closer I’m at a 6 and they are painful I’m not in total agony but I can’t think at this point every six mins feels like it’s two secs the pain just keeps coming by the time I get my food and sit down I’m now at a five it was going so quick I throw my food out run up stairs and check in. Front desk had a line there was three people ahead of me checking in so you think anyone would let the crying in labor pregnant person go first Nope!! So finally it’s my turn I check in and run to maternity. They quickly hook me up call my ob and she’s there within secs im currently at 2cm and boy do these pains hurt!

My ob asked if I want to go in the jetted tub I quickly take my gown off and jump in as soon as I could I would do anything to lesson this pain. My significant other is doing everything he can to make me feel better but nothing seems to be helping the jetted tub did help relax me but the pain was so intense at this point that nothing helped she checked me again a hour later and I was a four at this point Im asking for pain meds something I can feel the pain in my back now. My ob is very against epidurals so I tried my hardest not to get one but when I say the pain was unbearable I know most of you know and some of you are about to find out but it was gut wrenching pain. After checking me again I was a five.I said I WANT a epidural the lady was up there in what seemed like forever but once she put the epidural in and the medication threw everything was way more enjoyable. I could actually think and breathe and enjoy that I’m about to be a first time mom.

At about 11am I was ready to start pushin told you everything went fast real fast! I was very lucky! My man was holding one leg the nurse was holding the other and I was pushin with everything in me! my ob kept saying push harder push harder and I’m like I can’t push anymore harder then what I’m doing’!! I was getting so frustrated!! I was pushing for about a hour & then they noticed that my sons heart rate was going down with me pushin so I was rolled over into different positions to get his heart rate back up and with every push his heart rate would still drop. After three hours they were nervous I would have to get a c section his head was in the canal so I had to get him out soon you could see the hair on his head but I couldn’t push hard enough to get him out! So my ob called a doctor who uses a vaccum to assist with getting him out around 255pm the doctor came and told me the procedure & what he was guna do and what I had to do! he attached basically a suction cup to my sons head and told me to give a big push as I did he pulled on the cup and his head came out he told me to relax and stop pushing because the cord was wrapped around his neck three times. He unraveled the cord and pulled his little body out. My son was here!!!!! He was beautiful healthy and crying!! The cord didn’t cause any issues and he was wide awake! My baby boy Julien Anthony Jordan was 6lbs 10.2 oz at 20 inch long born at 3:01 all the pain I felt was so worth it what everyone said to me before on how once you hold ya baby everything goes away is so true. I never felt a love like this it was amazing!!

This was right when he came out! Bright eyes and bushy tailed 😂❤️❗️

He was beautiful!!

7 weeks old tomorrow
