on tuesday morning I went in at 5:30. They started pitocin at 7:03 and was 2-3cm. At 8:05 I started to feel a little uncomfortable. 9:10 I was still 3 cm and the doctor broke my water and she hurt me and then I felt that gush and the water so hot and weird feeling. 9:55 it started to get painful, about a 5 on a scale 1-10.
At 10:23 I got my epidural and in 10 minutes it started to work. I got catherized and was still 3 cm! 11:00 I started feelin some more pain. The epidural made me REAL itchy. At 1:25 I started to feel my contractions and was 5 cm and 90% effaced.I got the last dose of the epidural and went totally numb! i got some benadryl for the itching. 1:40 i got to 9 cm. about 2:15 they started to set up for the delivery and the nurse told me to push.
I pushed 2xs and her head was right there. They let my husband see her. Then I was ready and we had to wait for the stupid doctor even though the nurse called her like 15 minutes prior. I felt all the pressure, it wasnt bad at all but I couldnt do anything about it cause of the doctor. She finally showed up, 3 pushes later (not even hard pushes) she was out! 2:45 pm, 7lbs 15 oz 19 1/2 in long! We left the hospital with her weighing 7 lbs 5 oz. \
