Ellania Tahyen (Ellie) was born 03/02 at 11:41am weighing 8lb 7oz and 21.25 inches long.

Epidural wore out 2 hours before she arrived and the second bag would not work at all. It was 1 hour of pushing because I went from 7cm to 10cm in minutes but baby would not engage so they had me push her down. It felt like 5 hours of pushing. Only one stitch needed.

Then my problems began. Bladder prolapsed and I wasn’t able to empty it. Catheter in again after they removed the one for the epidural before baby arrived. The catheter drained in a minute over 1 liter!! All in all I had to stay longer and am on strict bed rest hoping bladder will flip soon after uterus is back in place which it is close.

I am feeling better today and just enjoying my sweet baby girl.
