i woke up on feb 17th at around 10:30 was talking to my fiances mom in the kitchen and i thought my water broke. She ran in and woke up my fiance and told him to take me to the hospital. so we got ready to leave wasnt having any contractions so we were in no russ....i had been 2cm dialated for about a month...when i got to the hospital they checked said it didnt look like my water broke but they were gonna keep me cuz i was 4-5 cm dialated, So got in my room around 12..kinda chilled had little contractions but nothing painful. around 3 it started getting really painful so i had a shot in my arm for painkillers. by 5 pm i was 8-9 cm dialated..my doctor came in said she was going to a meeting and would be back in a hour..15 mins later she came in by herself and said ok time to push didnt even check me. nurses came in like 5 mins later my son was born at 5:31pm...my son is 2 now and i still think my doctor was crazy i wasnt even fully dialated when she said push..i had to get stiches cuz i ripped forward and back...which hurt worse then the labor part..so i was at the hospital around 6 hours before i gave birth but it only hurt for about 2 and a half hours..left the next day....they sent us home in the middle of a freaking snow storm had like 20 blankets over my son.

I had my first baby when i was 15. i went into labor on black Friday of 08 after getting up at 3 in the morning to go shopping. i went into labor at 11 or 12ish p.m. and had to go to the midwifery twice because they sent me home the first time i was in labor completely naturally until Sunday when my beautiful baby girl was born at 12:59 p.m. weighing 8lbs 15oz 22in long. we could have gone home the same day but my mom came and we ended up just staying the night there.

well im 19 almost 20 and i was just 17 when i had my son and he dropped about 6 months and then i started dialating and was stuck at 2 for the rest of my pregnancy... the sad part is is that only half of my cervix was dailated!! i was in labot for about 11 hours and they broke my water a couple hours in.... needless to say they induced me june 12th of 2008 at 7 am and by 9am i was contracting to bad so they slowed everything down and then gave me n epidural and then my nurse gave my phinigan cuz i was feeling sick and since i have to have so much sugar a day they gave me demeral so that i could sleep and that way i wouldny put my nor my son in harm......idk how many pushes i did but it took n hour for me to deliver him fully.....my son was born at 5:05pm that night at 8lbs 9oz 20 3/4inches long!! the hardest part for me was holding in from pushing for about 45 mins so that the rest of the ppl could get there!!! i do not recommend n e one doing that!!! and well now my son dakota will b 2 years old on saturday!

I was 5cm dialted for 36hours without my waters breaking, i was in the bath for about 4 hours straight. they scratched at waters and 6 hours later my son was born. My son was prosterior- his spine on my spine and i had him drug free. I was pushing for a hour, he came out just as they brang a surgeon on to take me away for a c-section. MMy son was born at 6.51 pm on the 16th of December weighing 7 pound 6 and 53 cm long

i was in labour for 48hrs with my first.. i got my first contraction on the sunday night at 9.30pm, my contractions started at 6mins apart without my waters breaking. i was in and out of the bath and shower to ease the pain but nothing worked. i put it off till 8 am monday morning,. went into the hospital and my contractions went funny all over the place so i was sent home 8pm with sleeping tablets. i slept fine and didnt feel a thing that night until i woke up at 8am tues morning, i rand my mum went back to the hospital at 12pm lunch time, it took 45 mins for a nurse to see hoe far dialated i was, i found out at 12.45 i was 4cm dialated and i had hours to go so they sent me to have a spa, the worst thing those bubbles it made everything worse, at 1.35 i was given a pethedine shot and told it would take 20mins to take effect as my contractions were every 2 mins but still on 5cm.. at 1.40pm i thought i needed to go to the toilet, being my first i had no idea that what it felt like just before giving birth at 1.45 my son was born. although born blue because the pethedine was starting to take effect i had no other drugs and gave birth to a health baby boy weighing 7pound 7 ounces.. i now have 2 boys and a girl, each labour was different and the last was the worst. i am a single mum of 3 had my first at 17 and am only 23
