How Teagen came into this world

Monday I got up like any normal day and started cleaning the house, and so excited we were going to go to the state fair that night. Around 11 I started getting light cramps, thinking it was nothing I just kept doing things. At noon I asked the midwife and she said to just keep doing my daily activities and let her know if they get worse. Rob got off early and went to the store for some food and got lunch at cafe rio and came home. The contractions were every 4 to 6 min. When rob got home and we called the midwife and told her they were getting worse, she said she would come over and check me in a couple hours. Melissa (the midwife) came over around 8 and checked me I was at a 1 but I was fully effaced. She was going to leave but decided to stay and said that i might take all night. My dad came over at 9 to give me a blessing with Rob.
My water broke at 9:50 and then my contractions came a lot harder and faster about every 2 minutes, I ended up on the floor that was the most comfortable place for me to be. My mom over around 10:00. At 10:45 Rob got Melissa from the other room and she checked me again and I was at a 10 and I felt like I needed to push so I started pushing for about 15 minutes before I wanted to get into the water. Heather the midwifes apprentice came sometime around then and did everything after that. We didn't have time to fill the tub they gave us so they filled up our bathroom tub. I was pushing in the water till midnight but it didn't seem that long. I would push for 20 seconds then I would totally relax almost sleep, when he crowned they kept saying he has so much hair and I could reach down and feel him but I didn't really want to I just wanted to get him out.
He came out at 12:06 and they laid him on my chest and it was the most overwhelming feeling I couldn't believe he was my baby. He only made some noises when he came he didn't really cry then he was just looking around. He stayed laying on me for 15 minutes until the umbilical cord was done pulsing then rob cut it and they got him wrapped up and rob held him while I got out of the tub and warm. I got so cold after I was shaking really bad. I just wanted to get into the shower but Melissa wanted me to get in bed and eat something and breast feed him before. Rob was able to weigh him and get his length and footprints. After everything mom and the midwife left we were left by ourselves with this baby, we were kind of nervous but it turned out ok he slept most the night. My grandma changed her flight to the next day she was supposed to come in the next Monday but I was so happy she was able to change it to the next morning. My mom picked her up from the airport and they came over. She stayed with us for a week and a half, it was so nice to have her there to help and for me to spend that time with her. My mom was such a big help and everyone asked if we needed anything. We are so blessed to have the family we have and now to have this brand new baby in our lives. Thanks to everyone that helped us.
