I had pre labor for 2 days prior, contractions 5-15 min apart but mild in terms of pain so Charlotte and I continued on as normal. Then Thursday morning at 4:30 I woke up to a very strong contraction. They were painful and about 5 minutes apart, they stayed that way for an hour so I woke up Tony and called our friend who was going to take Char. The contractions kept getting stronger and by 8:00 am I decided to go to the hospital. I got there and was 9 cm dilated and they took me right back, my doctor rushed over, my water broke at 9 am and I was ready to push at 9:30, and he was born at 9:59. It was a fast but very intense birth :)
We are settling into our new normal with the help of family and friends and are loving every second of being a family of four :)
