I mean, they were pretty regular. I continued pushing at that point. Ashlyn's at the bedside. I moved back to the tub.

23.19 is when they note kneeling in water. So I moved back to the bath at 11.19. So three minutes after she broke my water. And then 11.19 is when they note that I stated I no longer felt the urge to push. This was added later. A minute later, 11.20, the note is report given to midwife Elizabeth at bedside. Care relinquished to her as primary provider at this time. Ashlyn signed off.

She had been with me the vast majority of that time, even though she was like in and out. She hands over Kara 11, 20 p.m. to Elizabeth, but she wasn't with me all the time. She'd check in every now and again. I recall laying in the tub and thinking I was going to die. We moved to the birthstool. Elizabeth thought that having a few contractions on the birthstool would help open up my cervix more.

Those were the most painful contractions ever because you're like squatty potty. I had been pushing since 930. Elizabeth was there the whole time I was on the birthstool. So that was one time when I was in labor that she was at the bedside, which was a comfort, but also kind of frustrating now that she was like there listening to me push, having contractions and not telling me not to.

We did that birth stool for a few contractions. It was too painful. I was like, I'm done. I need to get back in the bed. So they helped me back in, got a heat pack going on my back and continued on the bed. She'd have me do various positions.

I remember at one point she had me lie on my right side with my leg hanging over the side and she would shimmy my hip and that was supposed to turn the baby because she thought that maybe he was turned the wrong direction, I don't know, trying to get his head in a position where he could engage better. Does Elizabeth seem concerned at this point? No, I never felt concerned for her.

I recall at that time feeling so glad. That was the longest stretch of time she had been with me. And I thought, okay, great. If anything's going awry, she would know because she's been here a while, actually observing it herself. There was this growing concern in the back of my mind as every minute passed. This mounting anxiety of like, when is this ending? Is there an end in sight?
