3 weeks early
My due date was feb 23, 2020. This little one wanted to come early, at my last ob I had I got sent straight to the hospital for observation for high blood pressure that popped up at the end. In the hospital they did a 24 hour observation and found my protein levels were double the limit so preeclampsia. I was scheduled to be induced on Tuesday 2-4-2020 at 5 am. We got there and settled in, started pitocin at 630 am with a bump every 30 minutes. My ob broke my water around 10 and from there it went from 1-1000 in a matter of minutes. The back labor was so intense! I last about 2 hours and finally had to get an epidural as the pain was so intolerable (was hesitant about the epidural as I have been on blood thinners the whole pregnancy). I pushed for an hour and half and my little surprise nugget was born at 3:59 pm that same day. Little man weighed 7 lbs 5 oz and 20 1/2 long. We had some feeding issues in the hospital where he wouldn’t latch so I had to pump and syringe feed him, since we’ve been home he’s been doing great and actually eating! This mom is so relieved!
