Baby girl arrived at 37 weeks
Hey everybody! I was due sept5, but after multiple visits to the hospital with high blood pressure, they finally did a 24 hr. Urine collection test that showed I had mild Preeclampsia (multiple bloodworks and urine samples showed i was clear). They finally decided to induce me this last friday.
Process went real smooth, they put cervadile in my cervix around 8 pm that started softening and getting contractions. It really dod the job and they actually took it off before time as i was getting strong and very frequent contractions. I was ready for pain medicine but could not get it because they were teying to figure oit how the babh was responding. They finally gave me the med which allow me to rest some. Around 5 am water broke on its own. They gave me the medicine to induce and very quickly i was ready for the epidiral. No question, get it! That procedire is a piece of cake conpared to the pain pf the contractions.
I fully dilated within 4 hrs and pushed for just 20 min amd our baby girl arrived. She is small but thank God is healthy.
We thought all was goos but unfortunately I later on , around 3 pm or so, started bleeding and passing clots in excess. They could mot figure oit why and things got rough.. I felt I was gonna die, they kept pressing my uterus and clots came coming out. The dr saw me several times, trieddifferent medicines and nothing seemed to work until ahe gave me a real strong medicine that save me from a trip to the or but with other crazy side effects. I needed 2 units pf blood since I lost a lot. The bleeding has stopped and all is looking better. I am craving for a shower and am ready to enjoy my precious baby.
Do not mean to scare anybody, just know a million things can happen. The epidural is worth it, lets you enjoy labor in a whole dofferent way.
