Pregnant after 35

I had my boy at 36 weeks!
Owen Daniel was born 8/10 at 2:30 am. He weighed 6lbs 12 oz and was 19 inches long! He is healthy and we came home yesterday!
I started having super intense contractions around 10:30 pm on Aug. 9th, We headed to the hospital to get checked and I was already 6 cm dialted. They sent me to our room and before I knew it I was fast approaching 10 cm. The nurse broke the news that I was too late for an epi. They were waiting for my Dr. to get there and telling me not to push!!! It was awful and the most intense pain I have ever felt in my life. The urge to push took over my body, My Dr. arrived and I pushed 3 times and he was out.
I am recovering very well and only had a 2nd degree tear. I feel pretty good. Good luck to all the amazing women on this board. It is truly a miracle and the best give ever!!!! Love to all!

Re: I had my boy at 36 weeks!
congratulations!! What a straight-forward birth.
The one time someone told me not to push - I told them to f-off. SOmetimes, your body just DOES it & there is no way to stop it from happening.

Ooh, congrats on the new boy! And on such a quick delivery.
(But on the waiting to push... nurses made me wait when my doctor was stuck performing a c-sec. I think it nearly made me delirious.)
