So yes it is all over and thank you God! Labor was beautiful and painful. It was an all day event. The man was there with me reading me a book and pacing off nervous energy.

It was not until after they broke my water that real labor started. When I say real labor I mean teeth gnashing mind squeezing PAIN!!! Why is it that nurses insist on speaking to you during contractions? I believe it is a sick game that they play to keep things fun at work. I had an epidural that lasted about an hour and a half then all HELL broke loose!

I was dilated to a three and went to a ten in 15 minutes. I can't describe the pain I experienced in those last minutes. I was trying to keep a little control since I knew the mans parents were right outside the door. The doctor began yelling at me PUSH! PUSH! I yelled at her "I CAN'T FUCKING PUSH ANYMORE!!!! She said thats it get mad! YELL AT ME! SWEAR!!!!! I said "MOTHER FUCKER" and pushed as hard as a could and out shot the baby.

So now what? Dirty diapers, breast feeding, CRYING it has all started! I am just fine with it all, overwhelmed, but fine. Last night I had a BEER! The BEST BEER EVER!!!
