My birth story

Madely • 22, Mama to a baby girl 💗

So I’ve been in the hospital since Saturday at 7:30am. At 10am they started inducing me with cervidil. That got me to 2cm and 50% effaced. Then they gave me cytotec yesterday and that didn’t do anything. Later on they put the foley balloon and they started up pitocin. By this point I’m 4cm and 60% effaced. They left that on for 12 hours and I ended up getting to 6cm 90% effaced. I was miserable!!!!!!! I felt like she was ready to come out . The feeling was like having to take a really bad poop. I honestly didn’t think I would make it... I felt like passing out since the epidural wore off. At 11:45pm they told me that we would be doing a c section. I felt like a failure 😞. But my dr didn’t want me to go past 4 days of being in the hospital. The reason I got induced was because of cholestasis. They started preparing the room and me. They did a spinal and took out the epidural. It numbed me instantly. And hour later my baby girl was born! March 12,12:46am weighs 6pounds 14 ounces. And 19 inches long ! I had her at 37weeks 3 days.

Welcome grace Hernandez we love you so much 💗🎀🌸.

When it came to breastfeeding she latched on perfectly and she is the quietest little baby! She only cries for diaper changes and when she’s hungry
