Water broke 2-2-10

I was sleeping and woke up feeling leaking. I had just woken up about an hour ago to use the bathroom and felt annoyed that I may have to go again! Come to find out it was my water breaking. I hopped out of bed and was sure that's what was happening. It was 3;30 am and I was so relieved because someone was home. I would have been so scared if I was all alone. I went to tell my mom and she was in the shower so she was freaking out! I felt fine though, only had menstrual like cramps. I took a quick shower, packed a bag and my parents took me to the hospital. I called DJ as soon as we got in the truck to tell him he was going to be a dad. He was so exited and met me there right away. I was admitted when we got there. The nurse did a test to see if my water broke but it came back negative. I knew I was in labor though. After a few more times it finally showed blue! I was checked and was dilated at 3 and 100% effaced already. I started getting stronger contractions, they were happening every 2-3 minutes. I was checked again and dilated to 4/5. I was waiting for my epideral because the pain was getting pretty intense. The epideral was scary, but it didn't hurt at all. The only problem is that my left side didn't get the full affect. The doctor came back and gave me more of it. It finally worked better on that side. The epideral slowed the intensity of my contractions so by 12 noon I was given petosin in my IV. After a half hour I was fully dilated and and ready to have my babies. I was so nervous and exited! They were both head down so I was glad to be able to try to have natural child birth. They took me to the O.R. as a double set up was made for me just in case I had to have a c-section. I pushed 3 times and Presley's heart rate dropped. I was so sad, and felt disappointed, but they had to do a c-section for the safest delivery. I was never so scared in my whole life, but I knew what was on the way!! I felt everything, no pain, but it was so uncomfortable. At 1;34 pm Presley was born at 4lbs 11oz and Ella at 1:35 pm weighing 4lbs 6 oz. They brought Presley to me, it was so quick. Then I saw Ella and she was gone. I didn't get to see them again for some hours after the surgery. What a beautiful day...
