Well I don't really know where to start. This last 7 days have been busy ones. Last Thur was my last day of work. Friday we had our Dr appt to go to and not much had changed. I was dilated to 2 or 3 I don't remember and 70% effaced. Dr said anytime now so I went back home. When we got home I packed to go home with mom and we left that evening for Kearney. Sat am I got up feeling kinda crampy and ready to get the show on the road. Around noon I started having heavy contractions the kind that you have to focus through and Floyd had just got to Kearney so that was good. I had an absolutely wonderful labor team and every move or need was anticipated. I tried all sorts of positions and found several comfortable ones but couldn't stay any one way for long. As far as having pushing contractions well I can't say that I had many and she wasn't crowning or didn't seem to me to even be moving down. I would start a pushing contraction and it would just disappear into a regular one or I would start a regular one and then end up pushing but a contraction start to finish with pushing involved I don't think happened until the last one and then little bit came flying out into grandpas arms. No she didn't come a little bit at a time either she came all at once.
I ended up tearing really bad so have that to deal with but when I look at her it is totally all worth it and would do it all again. When I got back home we went to the Dr for an exam and I have a 4th degree tear with swelling so they can't do anything about it right now. For the time being I am on antibiotics and anti-inflammatory until the inflammation goes down and they can have a colo/rectal surgeon examine me and see what they can do. So I am looking forward to a long road to bottom recovery but then nothing in this pregnancy was normal so I am quite used to the abnormal popping up to deal with and it may give me more time off work to spend with little bit which I am all for.
