mkay so i guess i could take the time to update since i haven't in soo long..

INFO:

i had the baby on June 19th, 2008 at 1:57 pm.. 
i was only in labor for 1 hr!! go me!! ;)
i was uberly fuckered up on the epidural and loved it.. based on the fact i lost my sense of reality.. ahahah
and thought having a baby was a complete game.. i kept giggling.. joking around.. and falling asleep.. 
when i was suppose to be pushing.. ahahah 
i was in absolutely NO pain at all. just my wrist hurt.. lol which i bitched about.. haahah 
i had her head out on my 2nd practice push.. pretty much.. what took me soo long to deliver was based on the fact i kept wanting to go to sleep.. or kept laughing.. hahah
days b4 i had the baby.. i wasn't showing any signs of pre labor or anything.. i had NO pre-contractions.. i wasn't even dilated or hardly effaced... 
the baby was 2 days over due.. i had to be induced. that morning when i went in to be induced.. apparently i was 5 cm dilated and 90% effaced.. as i said.. WHOA! so when the fuck did that happen?!? lol.. my contractions didn't hurt at all. 
they gave me an epidural at 6 cms.. i didn't even ask for one.. but they said it's time for me to have one.. meh
my bestie paige and her mommy was there to help.. thanx to paige holding 1 leg.. and her mom joking about everything.. making me laugh.. took me forever to have the baby.
