Answer

I was 37 weeks along when I had my first. Pregnancy was very easy untill the last two weeks. I was swelling up like a balloon. I was admired to the hospital because of suspected preeclampsia. I had some scan done then went into labor at 10pm. Started with period like cramps. Went to the bathroom I had lost my plug. I walked like I was training for the olympics in that delivery room kept my nikes on untill I was ready to push 😂 4 hours later right before 2 am I said I was ready to push. Got onto the table the nurse checked me and saw my sons head. Woke up the doctor and I pushed and broke my water. He did not want to come out they tried mineral oil. After a few pushes she said do you want to tear or for me to cut you. I screamed cut me, the next push she cut me and his head came out. I couldn't feel her cut me even though I didn't have any pain medicine or Iv or anything. One more push and he was all out. They took off my gown because there was blood everywhere. My nurses massaged my after birth out and my dr stitched me up. I got my son and nursed him right away. When I was done they took him so I could get in the shower on a stool. Then wheeled me and him to my room to sleep. It was so intense. Now I'm on my third and don't feel any more prepared than I did the first time. You body takes the wheel.

Answer

Your child should not arrive before 39 wks for her best outcome. The brain and lungs are still developing up into that stage.
