Friday Febuary 8th at 6:20 A.M. my waters broke. I was not feeling any contractions just a few random Braxton Hicks sensations. I was anxious about the labor not starting but it seemed the best I could do was go about the morning , walk as much as possible. We went to breakfast at Mama's Royal Cafe then I called Kaiser. Kaiser told me to go to labor&delivery but Lornie and I decided to wait a bit and get things together and a bit organized at our place. At around noon I took a shower and felt the first strong contraction. I ate lunch and finished packing and we moseyed along to the hospital and arrived around 4 P.M.. At 7:15 they checked my dilation for the first time and I was at 8 centimeters. At 9:15 I was fully dilated and Amari was between station +1 and +2 so they let me do passive descent till 12:15 when they coached me on pushing. The endorphins were really nice to me. At 2:17 A.M. on Feb. 9th he was born. After one brief cry he settled on my chest and started looking around and being adorable.
