well it was my water that broke that night. so bobby and i left that night around 12:15 am to go to the hospital. we got loaded up and drove. the drive was not bad at all. i has steddy contractions about every 8-10 min. not too bad the whole hour drive. we called my mom when we got to windsor and well she was pretty excited. i just told her that we would drop off the dogs first and we would go and see what the hospital had to say. by the time we got to the hospital it was about 1:30 or so. my contractions had slowed down a lot. but it was a great night. there was only one other lady there having a baby. the nurses were awsome the night shift were so slow that they hung out in our room.Anna and Summer were very funny. and since i was not having any big contractions it was a lot of fun. ya i know giving birth is not fun. We walked a lil bit around then i took a shower cuse of corse the day i didnt take a shower my water breaks. so i took a shower it felt so great. i was glad for that shower. then i got back in bed and they broght me some food. it was pretty good it was just toast, cereal, juice, and i dont reamber what else there was. well when i was eating i fell asleep ya it was pretty funny. well after i ate we started Potasin (sorry i dont konw how to spell it) that was at 7:15 am contractions picked up a lil after that. some of them hurt i wont lie. i felt like i was going to poop on my self so i got out of bed and was off to the bathroom with all of my monteres on and my iv line. i flew out of the bed and made it one step in to the bathroom and i puked all over. then i found my self on the toilt sitting there with everything straped to me. it was pretty comphy there it seamed to help out my contractions. at about 9 am i got checked and i was dilated to 6. so we got an Epi oh my god how wonderful taht was. after i got my Epi we checked me again and well i was at 9.5. was i suprised. my nurse told me that we would let me rest for a lil bit before we started pushing. she said about an hour or so so i was resting my mom, my friend Ashley, Bobby and my dad were all in the room. i called them back in about 1.5 hours she said to push so i did we did that for a lil while. well when i pushed her heart rate would go down so they had me lay on my left the same thing. then when i layed on my right her heart rate was a lot better but would still go down some. so they had me push on every other contraction. i only pushed for about 10-15 min and out came Haydn.
they told me to get her and pull her out so i did, that was a very cool feeling. but since her imbelical cord was so short i only could get her up to my tummy. i got to hold her for about 5 min. bobby got to cut the cord. then the baby went to the other side of the room to get cleaned up. mom went with the baby and so did bobby. after she was all cleaned up bobby held her for a lil bit till he got worried about me. i was bleading so bad that they called in the Dr. a mid wife was the one who delivered Haydn. he got in the room started to sew and sew and sew. well he sewed for about 1.5-2 hours. all this time i couldent hold my baby. it hurt a lil bit. my dad was really good about hitting my Epi button. i lossed about 1/3 of my blood. i dint get a tranfusion either. i didnt want one. the Nurse later told us that i was so close to be going to the OR. it was really close to get a histrictomy. bobby was worried about me. i never lossed any memory or even fainted. i was really tired. well after i got all sewed up bobby was a lil better but then all of the family came in and started to visit. Haydn didnot have a name till after the next day.
so in March 11, 2007 my life changed forever, i became a mom. i never thought i would be giving birthe to a 7lbs13 oz 20 in baby. who would of ever known that i was going to be in that bed going through all the pain and discomfurt it took to push out that baby. i never thought i was going to get the chance to become a mom. i knew i always wanted to be a mom and now i am. Bobby is such a great dad. i have not changed all but 2 diapers so far. he takes pride to do what he can with her. and what a huge help he is.
i have 3 huge tears inside, she was face up and thats why we think she tore me so much. they are a lil sore but i keep ice on them and numing spray. it works wonders. i am sure i will write more soon i know tthere is more i am forgeting but i am a mom and i have mom brain

well this past weekend i had a brestfeeding class. it was a really cool class. i am so glad i went. i learned a lot. there were some really cool tips for bobby too. He couldent make it but no a lot of dads went to the class. She showed us some ways to hold the baby. i have to say it was pertty cool. Then after the class i went to my moms house and picked her up then we went to target. My mom got baby girl a Bumbo seat. i think they are so cool i cant wait to use it. i got i think most of everything i will need for when i get home. i picked up pads, brest pads, diapers, butt paste, i know there is more that i got but i cant think of it. i know i still need to get alchol pads or alchol and qtips for the baby. i also need to get a bassnet. or i dont know. Then we went to Costco. thats always fun i like that place. bobby said i could spend 200 wel i only spent 207 i thought that was pretty good for my self. since i didnt count at all. i got meet and lot of it i also got things we needed at the house. it was a great day with my mom. she had a good time too. then i droed her off and helped her unload her thing then i drove and saw bobby . i had a migraine it sucked i just delt with it. so after i ate a lil something i drove home. i talked to my mom most of the way home. i felt like shit. but i made it home to some really happy dogs. and the cats were really happy to see me too. i didnt unload the car till the morning but i did get all the food that needed to be ing the fridge or freezer. then i passed out. sleped like shit. i tossed and truned all night long. it sucked. i woke up still feeling like crap but i made it thourgh the day with out puking or anyting. i didnt do much on sunday just hung out with bobby. it was a good sunday. i have a lot to do still but that is ok.
