So hard to choose a middle name between Ellamae and Aria. I felt like Aria would be fitting for her when I was praying with Russell at the hospital bed where she was born. I tried the tub birth but it was so so painful. Then i tried the table squatting on the edge. I was leaking blood and water... Ugh!! I had been contracting every 2 minutes in the hallway... At a 4cm-5cm dilation, then i got to 6, and was in the tub.
The nurses couldn't find my cervix. But later said i was in transition when i asked for an epidural at 8 cm.
:(. They decided to stop checking because i was bleeding a little bit and they didn't b want b to n infect me.... They were so dumb! I ended up taking them how much longer it would take at around 9:50 am with the v pain i had and they said around 5-8 hours. I knew i had to stop. That i couldn't tolerate that much b pain and embarrassment with blood leaking into the floor so around 10:15 i requested an epidural. Then, the pain went away. Ah! But... It came back because i had to have ureter tube stuck into my pee hole. OW! That pain never went away.
I asked many women how they decide to have another child and they say they forget the pain of birth after. I think that's crazy.
I just know i want to have more than 2 kids, hopefully 4.
