Birth Story

uwemi · May 2015

uyai Nasom was born 5/14/15 same day as our wedding anniversary. On Wednesday at 4.30am I woke up to very intense contractions that were 10mins apart and these continued all day. I was miserable and cried all day. I called L/D and was told the usual don't come in until it's 5mins apart.
At 6pm I took a long walk at the park and then the contractions started coming every 7mins. At about 2am on Thursday they were finally 4mins apart so we went to the hospital. You can imagine my joy when I was told I was 5cm and 100% effaced. I immediately asked for epidural and at 8am I was 8cm and was ready to push at 10am.
My princess was born at 10.38am. We are both doing great. I also had no tear
I was 40wk 2days. FTM
