My Labor and Delivery Story

Hello again,

I guess I will tell yall the story of Elias birth...well it was Wed...and I was in so much pain so I decided to go to the doctor and of course nothing no dialated cervix...well I was so miserable all wed night and Mr. J had to go to work about 4 thursday morning....well I woke up after Mr. J left and started having so much pain..so I decided to take a shower..I know I was in that shower for atleast 3 hrs...I am not kidding it was the only thing that was keeping me sane...well I was wanting to call Mr J so bad but I knew he was busy and we just been to the doc like 3 times this week and I was afraid it was nothing and they would send me home.

Well it was about 1:30pm and I said I am going to call him and I did and he said he would come home and get me. So I took another shower and tried to shave everything..so hard when you have a big belly...and tried to make myself look decent...it was so hard cause every 7 min was pain pain pain....

Well Mr J is driving and I am like omg hurry this is awful...get to the doc and I am having to wait about 40 mins...I was so angry they finally get me in the room and they are like yep you are about half a centi....that was awful...only that much...

Well I am in the hospital room and I regret going so soon now...cause the pain meds were not working and i hated my nurse...she would not help me. LOL luckly my step mom Becky was there ...she is a retire labor and delivery nurse so I knew she would put up with me. LOL

Mr. J was freaking out and did not know what to do with me and my pain...it was funny he pretended that he had to go let the dogs out or something I forgot what it was...ahhhh made me mad. LOL well I was laboring at the hospital from 2pm to about 6 in the morning ...they gave me my epidural about 1 am thank God...it helped out a little ...well enough for me to sleep a couple of hours...

well at 6 my doc said time to push so Mr J held one of my legs back and the other the nurse held I push for hour and half but it does not seem like it. Mr J saw the head coming out..I still dont know how he finds me attractive after that whole thing...I felt the baby crowning cause they turn down my meds...and out pops little elias...I did not get to hold me at first cause he had low blood sugar so they had to test and hook him up to stuff that was awful scared me to death...finally after an hour we did....

The funniest part was when the nurse came in my room to clean me up was when she help me get up and all this blood and crap came out of me on the floor...and she had to drag me into the bathroom so embarrassing having to clean me down there...it look like a murder scence and she had to watch me poop...I swear we all need to realize what our mothers went thru for us...they should have mothers day for a whole week .LOL...

But I am glad that Elias is here and hopefully the next baby will not be this awful delivering......oh and I will not have the baby in the room at night so I can get some rest....well that is what I am saying now...but the next one will probably be in there with me too.



Mr J is wanting to try this spring or summer not sure though...I would rather E be potty train but I dont want to wait 2011 either...so who knows..
