Ok I know its almost been 4 months from when Hadley was born but I just finally finished her birth story. So pre warning this is a long post cause I don't want to leave anything out!
On Monday Jan 7th Dustin and I went to my doctor appointment I was hoping so much that I was dilated or something because my due date was that wednesday the 9th and my original due date was the 12th. The doctor came in and checked everything and checked if I was dilated and he said nope nothing :.( he said that we will wait til the 19th before we do anything unless I go on my own. I was so sad cause I was just over being prego and just wanted her to be here. So went and got some Cafe Rio and sadly went home to pout :) So this might be an over share but the food made me a little sick if you know what I mean so the rest of the day I just layed on the couch and did nothing. Around 10 that night I started getting really bad stomach cramps thinking I needed to go to the bathroom again but nothing ever happened. So after suffering and trying to go to sleep thinking I was just sick from Cafe Rio I finally went and told Dustin what was going on. So he grabbed my phone I had a contraction timer app on it and he started timing my pain. So the pain kept coming and I kept thinking this is just going to be false labor and nothing is going to happen and they are going to stop so after walking, drinking water, and laying on my left side for like 2 hours they never went away and they were 5 minutes apart. So Dustin was all lets go the hospital the doctor said when they are 5 mins apart we need to head to the hospital. I was so nervous I didn't want to drive all the way down to Mckay Dee and have them say oh its just false labor go home...
So we arrived at the hospital around 2:30-3 with all of our stuff packed and ready incase this was the real deal. Got all checked in and the nurse said yep these are real contractions and they were like 3 minutes apart by then and were HURTING really bad UGH! The nurse checked me and couldn't find my cervix, so had another girl come and check me samething she couldn't find it ouch again. So the nurse said we want you to go and walk the halls for an hour and see if we can get any progression. I walked for an hour that was seriously the worse hour ever cause every 3 minutes I would have a contraction have to grab on the wall and try not to scream I may have said a couple of bad words ha ha. Dustin was trying to be supportive telling me to breathe and I would just get mad at him (sorry babe!!!) After the hour went by I went back and the checked me.....nothing the girl still couldn't find my cervix so then like 12 nurses ok ok like 3 more nurses came in and tried to check and they couldn't find it. So finally they got the head nurse and she came in and checked me and she finally finally found it and said that I was a 2. I thought to myself "only a 2.....only a 2 how can that be these are so freaking painful!!" The nurses called my doctor and he would be in later he had a surgery and that he would come and check on me. So they gave me some drugs that help a little bit for only and hour. Then around like 7:30 my doc came in and said that I needed to be a 3 to be able to be admitted so if nothing changed in an hour I had to go home :.( After he left and the nurses left I had a mini meltdown to Dustin cause I didn't want to go all the way home and suffer through the pain :( After sitting there suffering through the contractions making all sorts of noises ha ha I felt liquid down there so called the nurse over and she checked and tested it and she said no thats not your water breaking boo again!! Then like 10 mins went by and I felt a lot of liquid and called the nurse and shes all "yep thats your water breaking yay" I was so happy I didn't have to go home. So they got me into a room and got me an epidural. Oh my heck drugs are good!!!! I don't understand why anybody would want to go all natural with no drugs soooo painful!!!!
Got all situated in the room feeling all good just waiting for me to dilate. So the nurse had me switch from laying on my sides and sitting all propped up saying that we'll have this baby out in no time ;) I dilated to a 6 really fast the nursed was like we'll have this baby by like 3-4 o clock. So I was so happy!!! I was going to meet my little girl!! Then it all went down hill from there :( They would check me and nothing would change so then my doctor came in and checked me around like 5 and he said I was a 7 and that she would probably be here around 9:30-10pm. So kept waiting and waiting. Through all of this when I would lay on my right side or sit up I could feel the contractions :( I kept telling them this and nobody thought it was a big deal they would just switch me over to my left side and the pain would go away. But I kept thinking to myself I'm not going to be laying on my left side when I start pushing so I'm going to feel everything AAHHHH!!! So 9:30 came nothing I was only a 7. 10 came nurse said I was probably a 7+ maybe an 8 so was getting happy. My parents showed up at this time. So we just kept waiting and waiting and they kept checking me and there was no change so finally the nurse came in and it was around 11 and said she needed to call the doctor and she wanted to know what I wanted to do either wait some more or if the doctor was fine with it or have c-section?? So I sat there had a mental break down from being so tired because I hadn't slept since Sunday night. But after talking to the nurse, Dustin and my parents I decided if it was ok with my doctor lets go ahead and do the c-section. The nurse went and called my doctor and he agreed it was time to do a c-section. So while the doctor was on the way to the hospital the nurses got me all ready for the c-section. I was sooooo nervous I was shaking and crying :.( I even got sick and threw up from all the meds and me being so nervous :( My doctor finally came in checked me and hes all you are only a 7 and a c-section is best. They finished getting me all ready for the c-section I was so nervous!!
C_SECTION TIME!!! They took me into the surgery room got me all hooked up and started the surgery. Ugh I don't know if it was just me or if everybody can feel everything!!! I was not having fun. Then all of a sudden they were you are going to feel a lot of pressure.....and then she was out!!! At first I couldn't see her but I could hear her crying and OMG that is the most amazing sound!!!!! I instantly started crying and then the nurse brought her over to show me and she was so beautiful!! Hadley Jan Beier born 1/9/13 @ 1:18am 8lbs 14oz, 21 inches long and lots and lots of hair and 100% perfect!! They took her to the nursery to get all clean and dressed. I was so happy I couldn't believe my little girl was here. So while they were putting me back together ;) I guess my meds were wearing off cause I started to feel everything UGH! So they gave me more drugs that pretty much knocked me out :( I SO wish that I didn't have to have this happen to me because after they were done they took me into a recovery room and brought Hadley in and I got to hold her for the first time....the reason I say I wish they didn't have to drug me more is because this is all a blur to me :.( But I do remember holding her for the first time so I guess thats good!!
My baby was finally here she is so perfect in every way I love her so much and love being a mother. I am so grateful for Hadley and Dustin they are seriously my everything!!!
