Here is a quick labor story!
Yesterday 6/26 was my due date and I went to the bathroom and lost the rest of my mucus plug and had my bloody show around 11 am. A few minutes later I started having some light comtractions, a little annoying but nothing worth timing. I just kinda took it easy drank some water, ate breakfast. Around 1 or so the contractions started getting a little more intense but weren't lasting very long 30-45 seconds long and about 3-7 minutes apart, Finally I was getting pretty uncomfy and decided they weren't going away and I called the midwife she told me to come on in to get checked. The contractions were getting pretty strong in the car but only had 3 or so on the way there. We got to the birthing center at 2:24 pm they finally came in to check me and the contractions we still not sure close together but were super strong and I had tons of pressure, when she checked me I was fully effaced, 9 cm with a bulging bag. The midwife came in and broke my bag only to find meconium scared the crap out of me within minutes I was at a 10 and about ready to push.. 8 minutes and 2-3 pushes later Logan Andrew was here! They pulled him out and got all the meconium suctioned out before they stimulated him to cry and was just fine! A very healthy 7 lbs 15 oz, 20.5 inches long! So thats it! a 4 hour labor and no drugs at all! It was crazy!
