Had my baby at 31 weeks!!!

Rebeca

Hey everyone so I want to start off by saying this week has been very traumatic and amazing all at the same time. So on Tuesday 6-18 I went to work like normal. I didn’t have contractions or anything just pelvic pain which I’ve been dealing with for a bit. Well in the afternoon I went to use the bathroom and notice I was bleeding. It wasn’t new blood. It was like old blood. Well I didn’t want to panic but with my history I went straight to labor n delivery. I drove myself because again I was ok. Went to triage and got hooked up to the monitors. Doctor checked me out and monitor wasn’t showing any contractions. I started to get contractions yet the doctors took it as ligament pain. I told them no these are contractions. So at this point they checked my cervix and I was dialated 1 cm effaced 100%. They wanted to keep me for observation. I started to cry because I had an abruption last pregnancy so I expect the worse. They weren’t too concerned and felt I was not going to have the baby. Well ten minutes later I was at 3 and my bag was bulging. I got moved to a room right away. Contractions were on top of each other. I asked for an epidural. They started the process asking the questions telling me the risks. Well thru all this my water broke when that happened it felt like a release and I had no pain. At that point doc checks me I was at 6 but that’s when things started to go chaotic. The babies hand was out with the umbilical cord. The doctor felt the cord was wrapped around the neck. She immediately announced emergency c section. She kept herself on top of the bed holding the baby up inside of me. Because she would have choked. We get to the OR and I was under general. They did a T line incision to get her out because she wasn’t in a good position. After all that, Sophia Nyla was born 6-18-19 at 6pm. Two hrs from when I got to the hospital. She weighed 3 lbs 4 oz and 14 in tall. She is in the nicu. She is doing great! Say hello to Junebug❤️❤️
