Alright Erin, this is for you. What wonderful memories this post stirred up. I find it appropriate for this to come on Labor Day, yet I am, as always, a day late!
How long were your labors?
Kid #1 - 9 hours...
Kid #2 - 3 hours
Kid#3 - he isn't here yet, I'll update upon his arrival!
How did you know you were in labor?
Kid #1 -My water broke at home. Very messy. Someone should have told me I would need a diaper. :)
Kid #2 - I was on the phone with a friend who said "Amanda, I think you may be in labor. You just had a contraction 3 minutes ago." Now let me explain just a little. The were not regularly spread apart, I could walk and talk through them. The nurse at the hospital said that I was not meeting the criteria to come in when I called. They actually had to break my water for me.
Where did you deliver?
Thankfully we had plenty of time to get to the hospital for both.
Kid #1 - near the banks of the Brazos River
Kid #2 - near the banks fo the Red River
Drugs?
Should you even ask? Absoluletly, yes to the drugs.
Kid #1 - Nice narcotic and then the Epidural (4 tries I might add).
Kid #2 - Barely enough time to get the Epidural! I was dialated to an 8 when we got there.
C-section?
Not so far. Don't want to jinx myself :).
Who delivered?
Who else, but the OB/GYN doc!
That was super fun....let's here your story
