Yes yes yes! Shes here! Teagan Annette Bushman. 7 pounds 14 oz 19.5 inches long! Im finally no longer pregnant! WOOT!
So heres the story.....
On Tuesday I had a Doctors appointment, they were going to check my cervix and strip my membranes and schedule my induction. - Side note I HATE MY DOCTOR- So when I get there the nurse informs me that I will be seeing someone from Portsmouth who never works at the clinic and is a OB/GYN! I was soooo happy. We got in to see her and I was dilated to a 3-4 , she said im closer to a 4 but shell call me a 3 just to be conservative. Then she asked if I wanted to be stripped and I said I would love to! And she did. She said she stripped me so good I should deliver with in 24-48 hours! We were so excited! she said the baby was really high and so I should walk and do squats to bring her down and to dilate faster...... after 3 days of walking, squats and sex, I was still pregnant! So when I woke up on Saturday I came down stairs and told Josh I was done being pregnant and that I was going to have this baby that day even if it kills me. So I had him do acupressure points every hour for 10 min all day. After about 8 hours of contractions every 3 min I called the hospital and they told me to come in! When we got there the nurse was so nice ( most of them are pricks and dont really give off the impression that they give a rats ... about you) She hooked me up to the monitor and got my history and asked how dialated I had been the last time I was checked I told her a 3 and she looked at the monitor and saw the contractions and said then lets check ya! She said I was most defiantly a 4 but could be stretched to a 5 so she wanted me to go walk around the hospital for 2 hours to see if anything would change and if I could get the baby to come down a little further. So we walked and walked and walked. I wore the WRONG shoes, Ihad worn my flip flops and now have a blister on my second toe! So we went back and she checked me again and said I was a 5 so they admitted me!!! I was so happy I almost cried! We got over to Labor and Delivery at about 1Am they hooked me up and check me and did my history and all that jazz and then they asked if I wanted and epidural I said DRUG ME UP! I was on the monitors for about an hour when they came in and decided that the monitor wasnt picking up the contractions because they looked really wimpy - didnt feel like it though- so the nurse told me she was probably going to do an internal one when they broke my water. at 3AM they started me on pitocin. which made them come more often and harder but not enough for the monitor - again they hurt- so at 5AM they had the doctor come in and check me I was a 6 and the baby was still really high, she said it will probably take another few hours so ill break your water and come back in a few to check on you. she broke my water and 30 seconds later I was in AGONY!!!! The doctor thought she had put the monitor in wrong because I was in so much pain so quickly so she pulled it out again then decided it was that my labor had just kicked in to high gear and said she would go get the epidural guy........ I dont think I have ever wanted to die because of pain before but that night I sure did. I had had 3 contractions from hell and got the urge to push though I knew I wasnt supposed to because there was no way I was ready... well I thought so I would just flex my stomach muscles and try not to push 2 contractions later I couldnt stop myself I pushed and peed the bed! The nurse got me cleaned up and with the next contraction realized I was starting to want to push and said stop that youll have to go in for surgery your not dilated enough to do that. so I tried not to with the next one I started to want to again and she yelled at me STOP IT! I yelled back I CANT!! So she looked under the sheet and there was a baby head and then she started yelling for a doctor. Next contraction ( as the bed is being raised and the doctor is just getting to the bottom of the bed and the lights are being switched on and pepole are yelling for stuff) Im screaming in pain and her head comes half way out, it hurt so bad the doctor said one push and youre done So at 5:26AM, half a push later shes out and people are STILL screaming for stuff and coming in and looking for tools and what not. The nurse who had been telling me I wasnt ready to push looked at me and I looked at her and I said I told you I had to push!
I dont think I have ever been in so much intense pain in all my life, nore did I know it was possible for a human to feel that much pain and not die.
As the doctor is delivering my placenta I hear a voice out side the door " Are you ready for your epidural?" It was the anesthesiologist. The nurses yelled back " um too late shes already delivered"
I wanted to kill someone!
There was blood everywhere! I got it in the far corner of the room, BEHIND Joshs bed, up by my head on the floor, EVERYWHERE!
And Josh through all this is freaking out because the last thing he heard was dont push youll need surgery! he was afraid because I was screaming and I dont scream or really do anything when Im in pain. The look on his face after it was all done was priceless. He avoided anywhere close enough for me to hit him!
But shes here! It sucked but shes here. Shes healthy and happy and a really good eater!
Im recovering a million times faster than I did with Hayden, I didnt tear as bad as I did with Hayden and Im able to be much more active than with Hayden so all in all I guess its all good but man I wish I had had my drugs!
