Hendrix Augustus Webb
3.15.14

Called at 530
Went to the hospital at 6:30
Started IV with antibiotics at 7:15
Broke water about 10
Stayed at a 5 for awhile because his head wasn't in the right position and coming straight down
decided to get an epidural around 12:15
12:45 needed to pee and was having a lot of pressure, nurse came in said his heart rate had dropped and wanted to check him out, I asked to get some help with using the bathroom.
This is where things get a little fuzzy ....
I told her I was having a lot of pressure and REALLY needed to pee. At this point she wasn't planning on checking me but changed her mind, when she did she said "Oh wow you're a 8+ and well on your way to being complete."
Called the Dr. and started preparing the room
My blood pressure started dropping so they put oxygen on me and were still concerned about his heart rate.
because I hadn't had my epidural long I was still feeling a lot and wanting to push.
Finally the Dr. walked in (really it had maybe been 15 minutes but bearing down for that long felt a lot longer.)
Right after my mom and sister got there
Because I had transitioned so fast and my contractions were right on top of each other the nurse had given me a shot to slow them down, so just as everyone was ready my contraction stopped.
But I was ready to push so 4 pushes and he was out.
