She wanted to be fashionably late!

My due date was July 26th and I had her at 9:38 a.m on July 31st (I got my Ruby baby!) She was 6lbs 10ozs and 20 inches long. I started contractions on wednesday night that just were a lot of pressure...They lasted throughout the night and then stopped on thursday morning. After cleaning the whole house on thursday my mom picked me up to have me walk around the mall with her...I went back to my parents house to help her cook dinner for everyone and started very strong contractions around 8 p.m. By 10:30 they had already been 4-5 min apart for an hour so we called the doctor and got ready to go to the hospital. We got to the hospital around 11:30 p.m and i was 4cm 100%...I then went to my laboring room where I got my epidural right away (it was HEAVEN!) I was ready to push around 8 a.m and realized my epidural was not working anymore...they tried giving me "cocktails" through my port but nothing was working...Birth wasnt easy but I know I would do it all over again after looking into my daughters eyes...mommyhood is wonderful, I cant wait for all you ladies to experience it for your first time, or again

GOOD LUCK LADIES
