Hello September ladies!! I had my second baby boy this past Wednesday (8/21). My due date was September 6, but he decided to come early and fast!! This is how it went down...woke up Wednesday morning to pee and laid back down. Felt a pop and got up with a gush. I knew that my water broke so I called my doctor and she told me to head to the hospital because with DS #1 labor was less than 5 hours. Got ready and the second I got in the car the contractions started. They were about 4 minutes apart and coming on strong. At this point, based on my last doctors visit I was 3cm and 60% effaced- so I figured I can't be that far along. Well I was wrong! We arrived at the hospital just after 3 am. They checked me around 3:15 and I was 8cm! The rest went by so fast...they rushed me to delivery within minutes and checked me and I was 10cm! I started to feel the need to push but I didn't even have an IV in me, so they were rushing to get me hooked up. They said an epidural was not going to work and at that point I just had to push. I wasn't even in the stirrups and his head was out. 3 more pushes and my son was born. Literally I was in delivery less than 20 minutes. My son Jackson Ryan came into this world at 3:42 am and was 7 lbs 1 ounce and 20 inches long.

He is perfect in every way! We are so in love! Thank you to all you September and August moms for reading my story! I wish you healthy deliveries and happy babies!! Here is a picture of my little man: [IMG]https://i40.tinypic.com/2z6woit.jpg[/IMG]
