I’m at the hospital, I’m only at a 3 still. Contractions are killing me. They’re going to keep me for the next two hours and check for change then.

So I am not even sure if I am going to tell this 100% right. It happened so fast. Keep in mind DD1 took 34 Hours from first contraction to birth.
MH took DD1 upstairs to bed a little late, around 8:20. They no more than got up there and I felt a contraction. I paced around for an hour timing and they were hardly more than a minute apart. So I called my parents and had them come out. By the time they got there they were quite painful so we bailed quick. Hospital is a little over 30 min away. They got a little spaced out but more intense. I think we got to the hospital around 10. She checked me and I was only a 3 still, the contractions were starting to really suck so I was bummed. My doctor said to give it two hours and check again to see if I would stay. Between 11:45 and 12 I felt like I needed to push so I called the nurse and she checked me and I was an 8. I thought the nurse was going to shit herself. They immediately sprang to action and got me to delivery. It gets fuzzy here, everything happened very fast. Mostly I remember saying over and over how pissed I was I had to do this without any pain meds. THAT WAS NOT IN THE PLAN. I wanted all the drugs. I got zero. I didn’t think my doctor was going to make it. They kept assuring me she only lived five minutes away and she would make it. She did.
I pushed for 2 minutes and had a baby girl at 12:16am, on my FIL’s birthday.
I think MH and I are still shocked to be honest. We thought we would have all the time in the world. We are still deciding on a name. We think we have one ... but aren’t committed yet.
I think I’m rambling. I haven’t slept much. She ate like non stop after birth and is just now doing the sleep thing and now I’m wired.
Tl;Dr: I had a baby at warp speed.
