Isabelle's pov
I'm getting ready to go to work, but I've been feeling these mind numbing Cramps since yesterday, the intensity keeps increasing every 15 minutes.
My due date isn't until next week, so it's not possible I'm having contractions, right? This can't be labour.
I put on my shoes and when I try to stand, the pain only gets worse!... Before I know what's happening I feel water dripping, did I just pee on myself? What's going on?! That's when it clicks - MY WATER JUST BROKE!!!
I call Nadia and Jess, more like scream their names as the pain hits even worse than before.
They run into my room and Jess starts laughing.
"A grown ass woman peed on herself. How..." Jess starts.
Nadia cuts in.
"Shut the fuck up!... Her water just broke idiota!" Nadia snaps.
"Really?!... Now?" Jess asks with wide eyes.
She looks between me, the water, and Nadia.
"Uhm guys... I'm actually in labour, please can you stop the bickering and help me get to the hospital?" I say through my teeth.
"Yeah, yeah, sure... Jesus!... Where's the fucking bag?!" Nadia yells.
"It's by the door." I say, as I try to do the breathing exercises I watched on YouTube.
"I'll go get it... Isa be strong mama. Remember breathe in and out okay?... Deep breaths." Jess says.
Nadia and I make our way to the car.
Jess is already waiting for us outside. We get in the car and I'm still doing the breathing exercise.
"Thank God we held that baby shower!" Jess exclaims.
We start laughing, but another contraction forces me to stop.
I remember the baby shower, it was so beautiful. Bo came over with her boyfriend and her parents. My mama and papa attended over Skype, even Mel was a guest... It was so amazing.
When we went shopping for the shower, I got two camera's, one for the bag by the door and the other for the bag in my car. I want to record every moment of her life. Right from labour, to delivery, to marriage - Yes when she's all grown up.
"Nad please reach into the bag you'll find a camcorder, I need you to record everything." I say.
"Why does Nad get to do the cool things." Jess pouts.
Not again dear lord...
"Because you're driving sweety." I say.
Nad rolls her eyes, as she fidgets with the bag, still trying to find the camera.
"Right." Jess says.
Nadia finds the camera and starts recording our drive to the hospital, and before I know what's happening we're in the hospital, the doctor is checking if I'm fully dilated, I ask for an epidural.
It seems everything is happening so fast, everyone is as anxious as me to meet my baby.
It's time to push, Omg!... This hurts worse than cutting yourself with a knife, my body feels like it's being torn in two.
Next I hear the doctor say, I should push for the last time. I squeeze Nad and Jess's hands so tight and give the last and final push.
A loud cry is heard, I hear awws and the doctors laughing about how good her lungs are.
My baby is placed on my chest she's so beautiful!... The nurse asks for her names and it just rushes out of my mouth without thinking twice.
"Adeya sunshine Ray-Carter." I say, without looking up from my baby's face... She's so beautiful.
Adeya means God's gift, and truly she is God's gift to me!
I can feel Nad and Jess's eyes on me and I know they think I'm crazy... Yes, I gave my baby her father's name and last name.
The nurse nods and takes my baby to weigh and check her while I'm being cleaned up. She weighs 10lb,she's healthy and everything is in shape.
I'm a mother!!!
Wow, I want to hold her in my arms. She's brought to me wrapped in a pink blanket, Her little mouth in a rosy pout.
Her aunties are hovering over her taking pictures and crying tears of joy, I can't control myself either and I join them, the noise and flashes wake her up and she starts crying.
"Welcome my baby." I say and place a gentle kiss on her head.
A nurse comes in later and shows me how to breastfeed her.
She tries the first time, her small mouth tries to latch unto my nipple, it hurts a lot, but I let her... After feeding she falls asleep again.
Omg! I'm so excited, but now my excitement is wearing off because I'm overwhelmed with exhaustion to my bones, like a car ran over me 5 times.
I give in and sleep for a few hours.
