I had our beautiful Daughter on 10-23 at 10:23 am!!!........here is my story:
I was due on the 21 of October and had an induction date set for Monday the 25th
my contractions started about 12:15 am, I was due the 21st and the 22nd was a full moon by the way. At about 1:15 of contractions/cramping getting stronger and more consistent we woke up our 4 year old, bundled her up and dropped her off at sis in laws house a few blocks away.
We
got to hospital shortly before 2am and I was in pain....they hooked me
up...and monitored me...my pain/cramping was getting worse but I was not dilated
past 2....THEY SENT ME HOME after about and hour or so monitoring me and
I was in tears freaking out cuz I know my body and I Knew I was in
labor....we literally got down the road and the contractions started
getting stronger and longer...we only live 10-15 min from hospital so we got home
but I begged DH to get me back to the hospital after being home less
than an hour.....THANK GOD I did because when I got there I was dilated to
7/8 in less than an hour.....I was sooooo pissed they sent me home! And
then they were trying to tell me I didn't need an epi.....I was in so
much pain I was about to pass out so yes I did need it and thankfully
the doctor gave it to me which helped me to relax and not pass out and
rest so I would have the strength to push......long story short our
daughter was born at 10:23 am she is healthy and beautiful!!! Now if
only I could get some sleep.........:)
