I'm 7wks 2 days pregnant with our 5th baby. My second I had preeclampsia, had her at 37 weeks (water broke) weighing 5 lbs. My third I had Intrauterine growth restriction (placenta started calcifying) she was born at 37 weeks (emergency induction) weighing 4 lbs, and my fourth wasn't labeled because they ignored my previous history and ignored my pleas to check. My blood pressure runs low, 115/60 all the time, my BP went up to 130/90 (average for everyone not normal for me specifically) hands and feet and face swelled up like I had with my 2nd when I had preeclampsia, they told me preeclampsia standards had changed and they said I didn't meet the new standards, her growth rate went down to 20% and told me they don't get concerned unless it goes down to 10%. My platelet count went so low they had to hand count them after I was told all my blood work came back normal... I had her at 39 weeks and 6 days. I kept crashing and they refused to give me oxygen saying it was in my head. Then they listened to me when they all freaked out because everytime I contracted I crashed and baby's heart beat disappeared. It took 28 minutes to get my placenta out (she said you have 30 minutes) and when she finally did she said "oh.. that's why" I said what? "Your placenta was calcified to your uterus..." every 10 minutes she came to push on my tummy and I could feel more blood and large clots coming and her face went white. I ended up bleeding out and had to go to the OR.. I didn't get to hold my baby for the first 7 hours after she was born. I was then hooked back up to pitocin and morphine, a catheter, and a different catheter with a balloon attached up to my uterus for 24 hours to help shrink my uterus.. that was the care I got at the military hospital on fort carson. I am still upset two years later. But, me and baby did live.

Now. I live in georgia and have been so picky about an OB it's taken me Weeks to finally find one. I mean researching their credentials and reviews from patients... I am terrified I will lose this baby due to the same issues and or my uterus being so damaged they almost took it the last by time. I am trying not to worry and put it all in God's hands.. but I'm still human and can't help it.. anyone else go through these things and had a normal less high risk afterwards? The appointment I made they didn't even ask when my LMP was as soon as I said high risk and told her shortly why, she just made me an appointment.

Sorry so long.. no one to talk to!
