It's about midnight and I'm holding the prettiest almost two day old girl I've ever seen. It's still kind of unreal, delivery went by SOO fast! How'd it go? Well as you have seen, I was carrying VERY low so I was feeling contractions from 1cm of dilatation up until I received my epidural..which I basically screamed for lol. The pain can not be described, it was literally the worst thing I ever felt 100% honest but it went by so fast it all feels like a dream now. 

Monday night I started feeling mild contractions, being that I've never felt anything like them I was trying not to freak out because deep down I knew I wasn't really in labor and I also needed to make it to and through my maternity shoot at 7am the next morning lol...Fast forward to me being wide awake and in pain at 6am, I was bummed I wouldn't make the shoot but I wanted to see what was going on with my body and baby. My doctor relaxed me and told me to go home, rest, have a glass of wine and come back later (yes, she's awesome). Fast forward again to 6:30pm, in the middle of a nap I jump up from my strongest contraction followed by my water breaking (which continues to break off and on until birth btw). 
After the most uncomfortable car ride which also included me throwing up a plum into my lap we got back to the hospital around 7:30, I got  the epidural in about an hour then after watching a few episodes of Bob's Burgers, my bf and I took naps and when we woke up it was time to push. Less than 10 reps of 3 pushes later my doctor told me to open my eyes and pull my baby girl out straight from the womb, it was beautiful, God is so amazing!

As my mama always told me, motherhood comes naturally and boy it has. I literally changed my first diaper ever in life today all my myself, I'm getting used to breast feeding, and my body is coming back intact. I feel like a superhero and sooo blessed. If you have any questions at all please so not hesitate to contact me, I'll get back to you when my hands are free!
