Epidural fail 🤣
Posting my birth story now since I finally have time to my self 😩😅
So May 2nd I went to give birth to my second child, I was so excited to finally get this baby out of me. Since I had the WORST PREGNANCY compared to my first. Anyways so I checked in and get put in a room. So im talking to the doctors about wanting to give birth without an epidural as I wasn’t able to do so with my daughter. They checked me & I was already 2 cm so they start me on (totally forgot what its called) But its the pill they put in your vagina to induce you 🤣 So They put it in and say they will be back to see how far I’ve dilated. So for those two hours I was contracting & the pain was bearable. Dr comes back and checks me Im at 3 cm. So the dr then puts a second pill in and says if Im not progressing more then they will start me on the drip through my IV so another 2 hours pass and now its a change of shift. So Now This lady doctor comes and checks and starts me on the drip, tells me she will be back in one hour. So she comes back after an hour checks me and our of no where strips my membranes. I YELLED WTF🤬 Cause I mean that hurt and she didn’t give any warning. & Then those contractions hit hard immediately. So 30 minutes go by and Im begging for the epidural because the pain came on way to quickly and it hurt bad. 🤣 Anesthesiologist comes in with his resident and lets him do it. So Then the resident messed up with the catheter. So then he had to re do it. He asks me if I feel pain still & Im saying yes. He asked me if I can move my legs I say yes. All I had was a tingling feeling but still had feeling in my legs and still was able to move my legs. So He tells me lay down and he will come back with something extra. So he comes back and puts something into where the Catheter is. So 2 hours later and I still feel The contractions but not as bad dr comes in and checks me and ask do I want her to break my water or would I like to wait a little longer until my husband gets here. I tell her I would like to wait she tells me my water will likely break within the next hour or so. So I start blowing up his phone telling him to hurry up because well just because 🤣 So Im trying to take a quick nap and I feel this pop and a gush of fluid. ITS MY WATER exactly 1 hour later. So im yelling at my sister in law because The contractions came back strong and fast. My epidural was not working at all. Im crying telling her I don’t want to give birth with out him and yelling about wanting to kill him because of the pain lol. So she asks him how far is he he says about 30 minutes so drs and nurse come in to prep me to push. Im refusing as I didn’t want to push without and epidural 🤣 But he’s crowning already. Im telling the dr I don’t want to push for 3 hours again (my daughter was a 9lb 5oz baby so I was pushing for 3 hours to get her out) Anyways she says he will be out in 3 pushes i promise. So I start pushing and WOW that ring of fire is no joke, I felt everything 😩So 3 pushes later and my beautiful baby boy was here.
