When I made it to Sunday the 29th and nothing had been happening I knew then it may just be a few more days! Tuesday morning I had a Dr appointment. All night Monday night I was having, what I know now to be contractions, all night about every hour some woke me up and some didn't. I went to my appointment that morning and I was at a 4, 80% thinned out, and she had dropped completely. He asked me to go and do a little shopping or something because he was sure I was going to have her sometime that day or night. I went to wal-mart to get a few things and went to lunch with Lashel, Koleman, and Anita, and still nothing had changed. Dr. Cain didn't really want me to go home because he knew I would just have to drive right back down. I had ran out of things to do so I decided to just head home and got home about 2:00. My contractions still had not changed much but at this point I knew they were indeed contractions! About 4:00 I text Cameron and told him that I think once he got home we better go down. I got the car packed and ready to go so we didn't have to worry about that. At this point my contractions had gotten about ten minutes apart but the pain was still the same. He got home at 5 and showered and we left here about 6. On our way down my contractions had intensified, were about 3 minutes apart and lasted for at least a minute a piece. Once we had gotten there and got checked in she checked me and I was still at a 4 but I was now completely thinned out. She had told me the only way they can admit you is if you prove change in an hour. about 30 minutes had gone my and she went and called my Dr. and he had told her no matter what she is staying weather she changes or not! She came back and decided to check me again and surprisingly enough I was at a 4 1/2 so she didn't have to lie after all. At that point we get moved into a LD room and set all up to stay. In the mean time Trina had called and found out we were there because we didn't tell anyone we were going. She was very upset because we didn't tell anyone or her for that fact. Once we got all settled in the room we worked on telling the rest of the family we were there since one person now knew. The next time I was checked I was at a 7 Dr. Cain was supposed to be coming at 9:00 to break my water and try and get things moving along. At this point all the nurses were sure we were going to be a few hours plus so I had decided I would get an epidural so I could be comfortable even though it was not that painful. Dr. Cain got there about 9:15 and broke my water and then the anesthesiologist finally came in about 10:00 and I got my epidural. After laying and waiting a while we had a few visitors show up, My dad and Colleen and little later Heather. Then about 11:00 Trina and April showed up. It was 11:40 and my nurse decided to check me and sure enough I was at a 10 and ready to go! They went and called Dr. Cain so he could make is his way over, she had me push 4 times and had to have me stop in the middle of the 4th because she was coming out and he was not there! He got there at 11:53 had me push once and here she was 2 minutes later! I can say it was an amazing experience and I would do it again in a heart beat, but I think I will wait a little while:) Cameron was a champ and he even held a leg as he says. We are so thankful for our little angel that Grandma Susy has sent to us and we are so glad she is healthy and cute!
