Hi there. Went to hospital Saturday afternoon with contractions. Regular but didn't progress. Spoke to de and ended up going back Sunday morning to pop water. That started more progress then got oxytocin to help. Actuall miscommunication with the nurses. They thought it was hooked up and an hour and half later realized neither actually connected it to me 😳 But that's okay I got a really good nap during that time. Anyways. Took like a few hours to get to 6cm then bam time to push. If I ever hear someone say don't push to me again I will throat punch them 😡 That took like no time. About three of this bad contractions. Little throwing up and three pushes. The she was out. Whooooo. The epidural wore off on the right so that was kind of bizarre feeling. My sister drove up from Arkansas at the lay mi it's so ended up being here. That was cool. I only Slept 3 hours is the 48 prior to the labor/birth so pretty much in a coma after. But thanks to the nice nurses and nursery I was able to get okay rest last night and this morning. My sciatica is already much much much better. Our toddler sage isn't too interested in the baby yet. I think that we are going home tomorrow.
So the sciatica is still feeling better but still lots of Pain in my butt cheek area. I'm told it will slowly get better. August has some jaundice so have to go to the hospital every morning for a few days to check blood levels. My milk has come in though so now she is eating really well. However if the levels stay the same or don't get better fast enough then we will have to do an at home photo therapy. She has lots of wet diapers but hasn't pooped since my milk came in. Hopefully she does tonight though.
