Owen thomas's Birth Story

Went to my dr appointment this morning and got my ultrasound. Fluid levels were low. I didn't find out till later that my fluid was at a 2. While waiting in the office I started cramping. Golly the pain was uncomfortable. So met with my dr and she asked if I had been leaking fluid. I said I wasn't sure but I thought so. She checked me and said I was 3 to cm and station 3 and that she could feel his ear. (earlier in the morning I sneezed and had liquid trickle down my leg.)
So my dr sent me to the hospital. With the intent to have this baby today or tomorrow regardless. Got to hospital and had to wait in the hall cause all the rooms were full. Since then I have been checked three times and my dr felt the babies head and let me know that she thinks my water broke this morning.
and now I am 5 cm and have yet to ask for my epidural. MY labor progressed smoothly and almost with no pain! my dr had me on pitocin to get the baby out as quick as possible...I was getting contractons every 2 to three minutes with close to no pain it was amazing. Finally after about 6 cm dilated i assked for my epidural. got it then my dr broke the rest of my water and within an hour and a half Owen was born!!! took me 2 pushes!
