Aug 1 - 11:33 PM- 10 cm 100% effaced and READY TO GO!

OK so they broke my water and in came HEAVY CONTRACTIONS AND INSTANT PAIN!  Contractions about a minute apart sometimes less, and more pain than I've ever experienced in my life.  They're horrible. I can't breath, I just want to cry.  I'm covered in sweat, it's the worst thing I've ever had to endure.  I can't get beyond the pain, and the epidural isn't doing anything.  I FEEL EVERYTHING!   I don't know what I would have done without my doula.  She was such a huge help in getting me to breath, focus and just push thru to the end.

Apparently they never got my epidural up to full drip because I'm having such a bad reaction to it.  Part of it is mental, I was sent into a panic every time they give me more.  I keep having anxiety attacks and freaking out, which is causing me to pass out and vomit.  I think the epidural is in the wrong spot.  The epidural numbs my lungs and makes me feel like I'm underwater or something, I'm literally suffocating.   I can't tell if I'm breathing or not and so I start to hyperventilate, so they hadn't given me any more.   Anesthesiologist just came in and upped me a little bit so I 'm not in such bad pain.  I also suddenly have a new feeling in my rectum area.. Best I can say is it's a horrible grinding on my tailbone area like I'm sitting on a concrete floor rubbing my butt around.  Horrible terrible pressure that I can't even describe, and  I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO PUSH LETS GOOOOOO!
