I delivered my rainbow baby a week ago today. It was rough from the beginning. I had to be Induced due to high blood pressure. I was not progressing well and ended up laboring for 25 hours. My epidural failed on one side. When the dr broke my water it had meconium. Baby boy was turned sideways so I had to push in every position possible for 2+ hours. I was finally able to push him out and I tore inside and out. Then I Hemorrhaged dr said I lost 3 times the amount of blood as I should have. I had to get 2 blood transfusions. I went home and for the first couple of days I was ok just weak and very sore. Well on day 3 I started getting shortness of breath,headaches,lightheaded,heart palpitations. The shortness of breath woke me up out of my sleep making me paranoid to go back to sleep. I went about half way through my day just trying to make sure I wasnt over thinking things being this is my first child/postpartum recovery. Well I finally called my ob and she said go to the er. I show up and my blood pressure was 230/118. Turns out I have postpartum preeclampsia. Which I didn't know was a thing. I'm currently admitted to the hospital while they try to stabilize my blood pressure. Sorry if this post is long I just want to say if you feel something is off please listen to yourself. I could have died from this and left my little man alone.
