Baby boy arrived!

I was 38 weeks and 4 days when my son was born! He was born on Wednesday April 03, 2019 at 4:01 PM. He was due on April 13th!

So Tuesday night I was giving my three year old a bath and had to pee. I wiped and noticed my mucus plug came out, okay cool, so I told my husband. Mind you I wasn't too excited because I wasnt having any type of pain. So I went to bed. Around 5am it felt like I peed myself so I went to the bathroom and saw my pants were wet, so I just thought "okay maybe I did just pee" so I changed and went back to bed. Well at 7am I woke up again and felt liquid just fall, not a lot, but enough. So I woke up my husband, told him that i thought my water broke. He woke up all like "ARE YOU SERIOUS" and we called his mother to come watch our daughter and left to the hospital. I wasn't in too much pain just some mild cramping so I thought they were gonna send me home. Nope. They assessed me told me I was 3cm dilated and that I was being admitted. Okay now we were freaking out! So they put me in a room around 10am and came in and broke my water the rest of the way. That's when the contractions started really hitting and WOW I was crying so hard. With my last baby, I got the epidural pretty quickly, i was induced with her so I needed it like ASAP. Well this birth, I tried holding out as long as possible and finally needed it around 6cm. Well I guess I waited too long because my epidural did not work, didnt even numb me completely, just had some tingling in my legs so I felt EVERYTHING. I jumped from 6cm to 10cm in less than 30 minutes. I told my husband that I felt like I needed to push (literally felt like I had bad gas that wouldnt come out) so he called the nurse and the doctors came in and let me do some practice pushes and then told me he was coming and to really start pushing. This was the hardest experience of my life, I felt like I couldn't do it and I was BAWLING my eyes out to my husband and telling him i was sorry and that I couldn't do it. Finally I pushed one last time and felt the release of him coming out and I was uncontrollably crying cause I was happy and exhausted at the same time. My husband was crying as well and it was so emotional. He kept telling me I could do it and was my supporter from the beginning. And after he told me that I did amazing and he was super happy!

We get discharged today!
