Born Nov. 29th @ 11:37PM
6lbs 0oz - 18 inches

I was just born minutes ago! They checked me out, cleaned me up and put this weird goop in my eyes! But I'm doing pretty good because my daddy is holding me!
Everything Mom can remember about giving birth to me.... (not much.. ha!):
Maddox Clayton was born at 11:37PM on November 29th. He weighed 6lbs 0oz and was 18 inches long. I was exactly 36 weeks along.
+ Labor started at 4:30AM with menstrually (front & back) contractions, 10 minutes apart.
+ Called my mommy around 11AM with the same contractions, 5 minutes apart.
+ Called doc, called L&D, called mom to let her know I needed to go in.
+ BF had school 10am-3pm, so I made him go. My mom has Monday's off of work.
+ Mom came & picked me up in the company truck (apartment building truck), equipped with snow plow lol.. her BF had her car at the doc office.
+ Got to L&D at noon.
+ Went in bathrrom to put on gown & robe, pulled down pants and my water broke! Sparing my pants!
+ Contractions stayed the same then grew further apart.
+ got SUPER tired, hungry etc.. and decided on Pitocin around 8-9pm or so.
+ Had "pushing" contractions & nasuea at the same time & threw up once, around 10:30pm
+ They wouldn't let me push for a long time (and I hated them for that)
+ delivery was about 30 minutes.
+ Sunny side up.. Don't remember the scientific term!
+ 2 - first degree tears.
+ no pain meds
+ antibiotic for group b, because I was not tested yet.
+ BF was absolutely wonderful!
+ Mom helped out a bunch and I AM glad she stayed for the delivery.
I'll post more when I find out more... have to watch the video first! LOL
