We woke up and waited until it was time to go to my dr's appointment at 12:30. I got checked and i was dialated 3+ and 80% she striped my membranes and we went on our way. Well after jarrom said he felt like eating Burger bar because we hadn't been there in a while so we drove to roy and got the best cheeseburgers around and went home. When we got home jarrom joked that he didn't want to go to work and i said maybe he will get a call that my water broke and we laughed about it. Me and the kids took a nap because i was cramping like i had been lately.While we were asleep jarrom got in the shower and got ready for work.
I woke up and i was bored so i decided to go walking but getting out the door with both of the kids i changed my mind. I called my mom up and asked her if i could go hang out with "thema and louise" aka her and my grandma. Me and the kids got to my grandmas house and we talked for a while and i told my mom that i wanted to get my christmas shopping done and she told me she needed to go to big lots.
We went there and found nothing we needed so i finally convinced her to go with me to hobby lobby and walmart on her one condition that i got her ice cream after i agreed lol. I finished my shopping and so did mom. We went to icebergs in syracuse for dinner/ice cream and went back to moms house to eat. While we were eating I just didn't feel right i just felt crampy but i didn't think anything of it, since i didn't get to go to the mall to walk with the kids my plan was to walk on my moms treadmill. I went into the garage and found that it was not plugged in and i didn't want to move it to plug it in. (which later on i found out was such a blessing i didnt walk) I kept going into the bathroom but nothing would come out really and a couple of times i was spotting. We continued to watch tv and my mom made the soup and little smokeys she was in charge of for work while she was wrapping the present for the girl's name she drew for christmas while she did that i did the dishes. I sat down and kept getting up to "pee" it felt like i had to go and i just couldn't but still got up and down countless times. I started getting strong contractions about 9:30 or 9:45 and they were two minutes apart when they started there was no warning. I kept telling my mom that i was just going to go home and lay down and i assured her that i would take main street all the way home. My mom convinced me to stay and time them for a while since they were strong. I was in so much pain but i didn't want my mom to know becasue i knew she would make me go to the hospital and i didn't want to get sent home again. I was having a hard time sitting still and i went into the bathroom for the last time and walked out and said to my mom "we need to go" my mom said "where" (because i was so dead set on going home and not to the hospital)
We hurried and got the kids in my van and mom called cheri to meet us at ogden regional. As soon as we got in the car the contractions were right on top of eachother and coming about every minute all i could do was cry and it was hard to breathe. Tanner was in the back just staring at me like i was nuts and savannah offered me her water bottle because she said it would make me feel better she is so sweet and thoughtful. My mom kept telling me not to push she was freaking out because i have never gone into labor by myself i have always had to be induced and had never been in so much pain. She kept saying "i can't deliver her i can't deliver her" Cheri got to the hospital before us and went up and told them that we thought i was in labor and they brought a wheel chair out.
Labor and delivery
I could not stand basically to even get out of the van. I said goodbye to my kids and I was rushed upstairs to labor and delievery i didn't even check in they just wheeled me right into the delivery room and i was stripped and put into a gown right then and there. I was checked and i was a 5 and 100% effaced and was still having contractions like crazy and i couldn't get the epidural until i had a bag a iv fluids and they drew my blood it felt like that was never going to happen and i was in so much pain i couldn't sit still i was contracting so bad. I called jarrom and told him to hurry to the hospital. In the mean time my nurse gave me my iv and put this medicine in my iv that was called phenagren and it took the edge off alittle before that kicked in jarrom was there trying to hold my hand and i snapped at him because everything hurt that bad! I felt bad but i couldn't help it. Eventually I finally got my epideral and wow what sweet relief! To everyone that has natural child birth i have no idea how you do it! My best friend jessica and my inlaws showed up not too long after and i don't even remember talking to everyone because i was so loopy from the phenagren. Later i felt like my water broke which it did but only partly. I was only dialated to a 7 for quite sometime and they decided to call my mid-wife to break the rest of it. When kathy (midwife) got to the hospital she broke it and i was ready to push right then and there! I was in shock it went so fast. I pushed for about 10 minutes and our beautiful Addison Lyne Brown! She weighed in at 7lbs 3oz and 19in long @ 2:50am With a full head of dark hair. Minutes after she was born the nurses had to intabate her to make her breathe and we just had to let her cry to try to get the junk out of her lungs. Everyone came in and met her then headed home to get some sleep. I still can't believe i have three kids. I wish the other two would have been the first to meet her. what a great day! I am in love once again! :)
