posted 5th Jul

It was 3am on JUly 1st. I woke up i felt like i had tinkled myself. so I went to the bathroom did my business went back to lay down & then again I moved my leg & more liquid came out. I told my boyfriend what was happening. I was standing & leaking liquid down my leg. So we called my mom his mom & they adviced us to go to the hospital so thats what we did. We went back to my house to pick up my things. We arrived at St Anthony Hospital around 5 am. I was beginning to feel pressure down there. They verified that my water did in fact break. I was still at the time leaking. I thought it was going to be a big splash but it wasnt. The hours seem to drag & the contractions began to get more intense.My mind was set to NO epidural but when the contractions became intense i was begging my mom to let me get the Epi. & she refused to let me. I was so angry at her. But at the end i was i was thankful that i didnt get the epidural. well they checked my cervix i was 6 cm. after that the contractions began to hurt like hell about 3 hours later they checked me again& still at 6! I was so pissed off. I felt like i couldnt take it anymore. they gave me the shot thats suppose to make you fall asleep but you can still feel contractions. I took it and was relaxed but the contraction freakin hurt. about an hour later they checked me again & i was 7. the doctor was so happy! & my reaction was "just 7!!!!"the doc said we were going to have baby around 8. it was 5 oclock. 6.7.8. 3more freakin hours. but baby isabella had other plans. I told them i feelt like i had to push so once again they checked my cervix i was 8cm. I felt like she was never going to get here. I was yelling being loud so they could check me once more & finally i was 9.5cm dilated they began to get ready for baby after the next 2 contractions i pushed an i was finally ready to get her out. I swear I pushed for like 5 minutes and mybaby came out. she had her ambilical cord wrapped around her neck. I was so terrified they quickly cut it placed her on my chest & as soon as i heard her cry I began to cry too. Finally after 9 months of waiting she was here. She arrived at 5:45 pm. 7lbs 30z, 17in.
I am so in love with her & daddy is being so helpful. I love them both more than anything in this world.
