My September baby became an August babyπ
sorry in advance if this post is jumbled!
I was due September 4th scheduled to be induced September 9th. I went to my 37 week appointment (on friday) and I was dialated to 3cm so we went ahead and did a membrane sweep. I started cramping/contractions right after that and I was thinking that was it. from Friday to Monday I lost my muscus plug and ended up having my husband buy me a yoga ball to bounce on to try and get things going. I stopped having contractions Tuesday and was super uncomfortable π. Wednesday night hubby and I ended up having sex ππ I thought, maybe itll send me into labor so why not ππ. Thursday morning at 7am I had my first real contraction. I called my husband after the second contraction and told him to come home from work because I knew I was going into labor! we drove to the hospital and they checked me and I was still at 3cm. They told me to go walk around for an hour and come back. not even 20 mins I was in so much pain from contractions I went back to triage and they said I was at a 5! my blood pressure was high so they went ahead and admitted me. I was in so much pain I was screaming in triage. They finally got me into a room and the midwife wouldn't let me get an epidural until i was a little further along. they gave me stadol and it only helped for 30 min but allowed me to relax and get to an 8. They gave me the epidural ( which is honestly the best thing ever invented, I give props to women that can do all this naturally) about 30 mins later I was ready to push! I pushed for 2 hours and Miss Olivia Adrianna was born πππ. she came out with her umbilical cord around her neck and under her arm but is completely healthy!
weighing exactly 7lbs and exactly 19in she was born at 9:36pm on August 23, 2018πππ

Shes such a perfect baby we couldn't be more blessed ππ
