I'm in labor
On February 6th I began labor at 1:45 a.m. By 4:oo a.m. I made it to the hospital and I was already dilated to a 6. I was excited thinking that my labor would be fast. 2 hours later I was dilated to an 8. Well then I stayed at an 8 for like 4 or 5 hours and I hadn't had any medications yet and I thought I would die. So I took feterol for 3 hours. I wasn't progressing at all and so the doctor decided to give me patossun to help the contractions be stronger. At this point I couldn't take the pain any more and so I was given an ephidural. Oh that was amazing I couldn't feel anyting and I was able to rest a little bit. I was on that for about an hour and I was at a ten and the doctor said I could start pushing. Everything was going good until he nurse left and had to bring in the doctor. With every contraction I had and I started to push Owen's heart rate would drop, and he was still face up. I pushed and pushed and his heart rate still dropped. Finally after pushing for 1 hour and 28 minutes out Owen came. The cord was wrapped around his neck so thats why his heart rate dropped with every push. Tad got to cut the cord and we began to enjoy our new bundle of joy. God has blessed us with a healthy and beautiful little boy.
