Quick back story... I have an Incompetent Cervix and had a cerclage placed at 15 weeks. I was scheduled for my removal yesterday (at 36 weeks) well my water broke and so I ended up going into the hospital to have the stitch removed. They didn't take out all of the stitch early in the day so my labor wasn't progressing. Hours later a nurse checked my cervix and realized there was some left. The doctor and nurses weren't well prepared so they were trying to remove it for almost an hour before finally telling me they thought it was best to give me an epidural so they could get the rest of the stitch out. Such horrible pain before the epidural. After the stitch came out I was dilated to a 4. I had them turn the epidural way down though so I could actually feel my labor and delivery which was a neat experience but after I had her I almost bled out. They gave me a horrible medicine to stop the bleeding which made me so sick I couldn't feed Annabelle. When checking after the bleed out they noticed my cervix had a huge tear in it and had to stitch it up. Also my placenta wouldn't detach so they had to manipulate that and essentially tear it off my uterine wall. I'm so exhausted and sore today I can barely hold my little girl. It's breaking my heart. I just keep reminding myself that she is healthy and doing great and what's important is that I heal so that I can be there for her. My Annabelle Lynn!
