I was 35 weeks 5 days when my water broke while I was sitting on the toilet. I had to ask my sister if that's what was happening because of course I had no idea. When she confirmed it, needless to say I was estatic not only because I felt like a beached whale that couldn't sleep, eat, or even BREATHE comfortably...but also because I was ready to meet these two angels!
Even though my water broke at 7:30 pm on Feb 7th...I didn't go to the hospital until 12pm. Luckily for me the pains didn't hit until around 2pm. They said...Would you like an epidural, I said "HELL YEAH!" For those who don't know what that is like...They stick a needle into your spine with an anesthetic that dulls the pain. I almost paralyzed myself because I jumped when she was about to put it in. Everyone was like "YOU CANNOT DO THAT!" LOL So they finally got it in...it worked for a while but after a few hours...THE PAIN TOOK OVER!
OMG! I had one section in my stomach that hurt hurt HURT! The Dr. offered to give me a C-section citing the baby on the top might turn....I really wanted a natural birth though, so I declined. Around 12pm, I finally dialated enough to prep for delivery. I had to deliver in the OR just in case they had to do an emergency C-section. My middle sister came with me and she was GREAT!
Miesha was VERY easy to deliver...I could feel the contractions, but the actual feeling of her coming out was WEIRD! She only took about 9 good pushes and she came out. 5lbs even...they cleaned her and took her away so I wouldn't be distracted...as you know I still had another one to go. KIONI'S ASS! OMG...The fact that they were 50 minutes apart should give you an idea of how hard it was to get her out of there. She was CHILLIN! Pushing out the second one is SO HARD! The Dr. was like "Push through the pain" which brought out the athlete in me...My sister was rubbing my head and EVERYONE else was like "You can do it, you are doing great" etc. So I bore down...burst a few eye vessels and pushed my little Kioni out...5lbs 14oz. That might seem small for me to say it was hard to do, but remember this was the second one, that took alot of me!
So skipping alot of gross stuff 😉, back in the room...All I could do was just stare at them. Imagine me, a mommy! The feeling is unlike any other, especially when you get two the first time. I was so tired but I couldn't sleep because my mind was racing at the thought of these two girls looking up to me for guidance in life. I called Mr. Pisces around 6pm...he is supposed to be coming here. I am giving him the opportunity to do the right thing, but even if he doesn't...I am glad because he gave me two things so precious and considering they were created in love (I know on my part, and I think on his) they can't be wrong. I am also very happy I didn't go through with the abortion because I already can't imagine my life without them.
This is my testimonial of the birth of my twins. You can see pictures on my profile page. Anyone else want to share their birth stories, feel free to do so here. Either way, I've started a new chapter in my life...Here we go!
