In labor with midwives brew

Ingrid

On Tuesday Feb. 19.2019, my Dr swept my membrane and before that she assure me I was already 3cm dilated. On Wednesday I had my brew and it didn’t do anything, I had a second dosage Thursday 2/21/19 at noon, a pedicure at 5pm and at 7 I started feeling contractions, I timed them and they were 2/3 minutes apart and last about 40 second sometimes 50, called nurse line and they told me to come, packed my bags, breathe through my contractions getting stronger, when I arrived to triage they checked me and was 6cm dilated (around 9/10ish pm)

By 1:40am my Dr. checked me and I’m now 9cm dilate, she’s surprise his my contractions are strong and in good rhythm. Before hand I had tons of red raspberry leaf tea, cinnamon tea and tazo zen tea, I’m waiting for pressure to begin pushing at 10cm !!! Hope this helps some of you, by the way I drank my brew at 39 weeks.

We’re just waiting babies arrival and this feels like a dream epidural, has me feeling super comfortable!
