So I got to the hospital at like 6am and was still 1 cm and 50% effaced same as I had been for like 2 weeks! So I had to walk for an hour and a half and then when I got back I was 3 cm and 75% so they admitted me. I was 4 cm like 3 hours later so they broke my water which was totally weird cuz at first it was a tiny trickle and the next thing I knew I was sitting in a freaking hot tub! Then I decided I needed the epidural cuz I was also getting pitocin and thet made my contractions really close and it hurt! The epidural was great! They say the worse part is the intital prick but thats no worse than getting stuck for like blood so that didnt bother me. It was the pressure from needle looking the space to inject the meds that feels gross. Then at like 8 30pm I was 7-8 and 100% effaced which noramally once u are effaced completely it goes quickly but I pressed my epidural button ne ways cuz I was starting to feel contractions up top a lil. Well next thing I know I felt pressure and his heart rate was dropping so they wanted him out. I was 9 and half so they had me push thru a "lip" that I thought the nurse said "rip" cuz her glove was all bloody and I thought for sure I was gunna have to have a c-section. But then I was 10 and it was like 15 mins of pushing (even tho I could feel a thing) and he was out!! I had to have stitches on the inside and my perineum from all the rips from his fat ass! He was 8lbs and 3.7 oz. 21 and half inches long.Liam vander kuhn was born at 9:46 pm monday night. He had his cord around his neck so I didnt get to hold him right away :( then I couldnt p and they were gunna cathedarize me but I went p finally in the bed! W/e its better than a cathedar! B4 I finally peed I tried to walk to the bathroom and I stood up to fast in off the pot and I passed out luckily steven was there and caught me! It took me forever to get out of the stupid hospital cuz liam had a slight heart murmur but its cleared up. I hated the hospital the food sucked so bad!! Steven went and got take out except for breakfast cuz it was good once I rewarmed it. I kept getting yelled at for sleeping with him in my bed but I didnt listen. And then last night the nurse brought him back to me after an assesment and he was hungry so she wanted to know what I was feeding him and in my sleep I apparently told her mashed potatoes cuz she had to wait a few minutes and ask me again.
