40 weeks & 5 days!
Tuesday morning I woke up feeling a little off first thought was maybe it’s just pregnancy symptoms, I was feeling foggy and I was in the kitchen cooking food for me and my 3 year old son and I started having mild cramps and bad hip pain and stomach was even lower! Fast forward was laying down throughout the day resting and I was having horrible Braxton Hicks is what I thought and around 6-7 off and on cramps I got up went to the restroom and I felt a lot of discomfort. Waited for my SO to get home from work to take us to Walmart we went and I was indeed having contractions and we got home and they were coming back to back and I was like no let’s wait longer before we go to the hospital and we did, got worse we said okay let’s go, got here and they checked me in and checked my cervix and said you’re 8 centimeters dialted so I was shocked and I did and all natural birth like I planned and the nurses kept saying I was having the worst labor pains I had back labor yet I did amazing! I felt my bag break and it was painful and 30 minutes later I felt so much pressure and I was screaming because it was her coming down they geared up quick and told me to keep doing good breath and push after several pushes my daughter Aamilah was born 7 pounds and so adorable I cried screamed in pain but I didn’t give up hubs was so supportive and emotional it was beautiful! I must say after she was born this morning I am feeling all the recovery pain lol breastfeeding is going well. It was worth it!
