The contractions were getting stronger and I could barely stand - TopicsExpress



          

The contractions were getting stronger and I could barely stand when they hit. My mom told me over and over again to Walk, walk, walk! I wanted to walk; I wanted to have this BABY! I couldnt the pain was to bad! When the contractions hit I wanted my ball, to roll and rock my hips while propped on the wall, or what I manly did; Whined in pain to my pillow while rolling around on the bed. Well, while I was blabbering and whining to my pillow my mom decided she would come and make Scotty get up because she knew I was in labor. I didnt wanna go! Screw that! My water hadnt broke yet and I wasnt about to get examined again! No, thank you! Well scotty called the OB and was saying how much pain that I was in and they said for me to come in to get checked. Our stuff was already packed from the first false alarm, so all we had to do was buckle up and drive to the hospital. The contractions were only about two minutes apart now. Needless to say that ride sucked! When we arrived at the hospital I told my mom and Scott that I wasnt going in until my water broke. Well, finally my mom and Scott convinced me to go up. There we were sitting in this small waiting room where I day dreamt about ripping everyones head off who talked. I wanted compete silence while I fought the urge to cry like a baby. The nurse come and calls Wheeler. FINALLY! I wanted to call her a select choice of names as she looked at me with an annoyed face as I had to keep pausing in the hallway when a contraction hit. After having three contractions and walking; wait I should say waddling what felt like a football field to exam room, I was finally there. The nurse gave me a hideous gown and I stripped and climbed into it. The nurse checked my cervix and then took her gloves off and left. That annoyed and scared the crap out of me. A few minutes later in came the nurse and then a midwife. The midwife checked my cervix and looked me in the eyes and said youre at 6! Youre going to be a mommy tonight! So many thoughts raced though my head; (Im not ready! I dont wanna let her go yet. I cant wait!) I was beyond nervous and excited at the same time. She told me that they were going to walk me to the birthing room now (Im sure its not called that but I dont know the correct term for the room where you push your child out, haha). I laid in the bed and got asked a million and one questions and then I was hooked up to an IV and I had fluids ran into me. I was at 7 buy then. My mom was finally allowed in! Hallelujah! I had no clue what was going on and I needed my mommy. And then in came my uncle Ryan, my little sister Bryanna, and my Mamaw, They stayed for a little while and then went back home to get some sleep. After they left it was just us girls and Scott. Id gotten the epidural at this point so I was feeling good. All I wanted to do was call my little brother phill and laugh about having a catheter In. When the nurse came in to check me Scott was laying in the couch, Bryanna was all spread out sleeping on the floor and my mom was beside me on the rocking chair. I was at 9! I told Bryanna she had to leave. I wanted to save her from seeing me all spread open and bleeding. Lol. I regretted her leaving the moment she left. I wanted her beside me too. At this point there was no time to bring her back I was at 9 and progressing fast! I was checked by a nurse and then my midwife. After everything was ready for me to push I became extremely nervous by something the midwife said earlier. It was something like Im only here to catch her Well, of course I had to ask and make sure shes never dropped a child and to make sure my little Maybree Sue wasnt going to shoot out and be caught by a wall! After reassuring me shes never dropped a baby my legs were lifted and I was ready to go. Well, as soon as we put a chair behind Scott. We didnt want him passing out lol. Scott was holding a leg, a nurse was holding a leg and my mom was by my head. We were tracking time and waiting for the clock to hit a minute mark. When that big hand came around I was told to push! Oh man, I was so nervous I was going to poop! Haha. I pushed and pushed and pushed some more. I thought my head was going to pop off! After my first push they saw her head! She had a full head of hair! Man, was I glad to hear that! Can you imagine? I little bald me running around around? I know, neither can I. After a few more pushed she was here! My baby! The single most beautiful girl in this entire world. My daughter was laid on my stomach and her daddy cut the cord. I remember thinking please be safety scissors. My daughter was handed to me and all I wanted to do was look at her and tell how beautiful she was and how much I loved her, how proud I was of her. My mom was on the phone with my dad. He was listening to his first grandchilds fist breath, Her first cry. Scotty was just as much in awe as I was. I held a little tighter not wanting anyone to take her away. She was then carried away by a nurse and her mouth and nose were again suctioned out and she was cleaned off a bit and a diaper was put on her. It was daddies turn to hold his daughter. I remember thinking how handsome he looked. He was still in his uniform from the day before and his hair was a mess but he gave me my favorite little smile and I fell in love all over again with him. It was now nanas turn to hold her first grandchild. Tears rolling down her face as she held Maybree and kissed her all over. Telling her and myself how much she loved us and how proud she was. After tons of kisses and telling me that it was the greatest day of her life and thanking me for letting her be apart of it Nana handed Maybree back to me. My life was complete. My daughter was here. 6 months ago today my life was forever changed. Happy 6 months my beautiful princess. ❤️.
