9-5-18 baby girl was born!

I started having contractions on my due date September 1st, I was having contractions 2-4 minutes a part since 9-3-18. Finally at 3 AM Wednesday I went in because my contractions were hurting more. They admitted me when they found I was 3 cm dilated. I was trying for a VBAC this time so I labored at the hospital without pitocin for awhile. I got the epidural shortly after which was such relief I slept all day once I reached 5 cm they gave me a low dose of pitocin, after breaking my water. Felt like a few hours and they came back in to check and I was at 9 cm 100% thinned out! I said I'm nervous now! Finally after a hour I started feeling pain, sweating bad I told my bf to get the nurse they said give it a hour and we can start pushing. I kept saying I can't wait, I was 10 cm and ready to go, and all of a sudden doctors started coming in and told me to push during contractions and every time I did I felt better so I wasn't waiting a hour to push, this baby was coming soon! 40 minutes later I got my successful VBAC ! Best accomplishment! Aubrey Jane was born @ 5:44 pm, 6 lbs. 11 oz., 20 in. Long. I had to get stitched up due to a 2nd degree tear. I got sent home yesterday, baby hopefully will come home Monday! It's so hard not to have her home right now.
