My story
February 18, 2019 was the day I found out I was pregnant with my first baby. I was so excited I went fraught to the doctors to make sure it was true. My blood test came back very clear that I was pregnant! At the time I was only about two week along so so very early they were surprised I found out that fast. I could wait and I told my husband a week later with a cute box. As time wend on I was having lots of difficulties with my pregnancy. I was bleeding all the time and every time I went in I was always told that I could be miscarrying my baby. This was going on for three months. It was of and on but sometime wouldn’t stop. My OB never wanted to see me or would reschedule my appointments the day of. I was staring to look for a new OB this whole time and finally around 17week along I found one but count see I’m for a week later. My husband and I went to and early ultrasound place to find out what we were having and we where so excited to know it was going to be a boy! We couldn’t wait to need him. Finally I was able to see my new OB and he was amazing at the time my bleeding lead up a little and he ran test and did checkups to make sure me and the baby where doing good. Luckily we where. 2weeks almost 3weeks later my bleeding came back but so much heavier and more painful. I was getting to tired of always going to the ER that I wanted to wait until the next day to see my Dr. I called the emergency on call line just to make sure what they thought and they told me that I just needed rest and take Tylenol. I should have just went to the ER that day. I ended up falling asleep and waking up at 12:30am on 6/24/2019 I had so much pain and I felt like I had to pee so bad. I went to the bathroom and my bleeding was worse. So I got up and woke my husband up and told him that we needed to go to the ER right away. Before I could finish.... my water broke. I was terrified I was only 20weeks and 5days along with my baby boy. I was hysterically cry and freaking out all at once. I called my mom and my dad and told them to meet us there. I call my OB and told his emergency line that my water broke and they told me to go straight to labor and delivery. The whole way there I couldn’t stop crying and praying my baby was going to be okay. I was in pain and I was I. So much shock I couldn’t explain what happened to the nurses they thought I was over reacting and they it couldn’t have been my water that broke. Finally a fill in Dr came in because my OB just got off doing a double, and she had an ultrasound tech check me out. She was there about an 20min not saying anything and it was making me worry. On top of it all the nurse I had was treating me like I was stupid for coming in and making me feel like I was overreacting... after the tech left the Dr came in and told my husband, mom, sister, and I that I was loosing my son and he was coming out breached and there’s isn’t anything they can do. My husband and I where beyond devastated... Slowing every few hours I had to hear my sons heartbeat decrease until finally I couldn’t handle them doing that to us. Around 11:30am my OB came in and checked me and the baby. He then immediately told my I had to start pushing. I was terrified. It was the saddest scariest thing I’ve ever had to do. It was so hard because I wasn’t dilated at all and had no pain medication. After 25min of pushing my Dr told me I need to have an emergency C-Section. At 12:11 my son Theodore was born but didn’t make it. He was a stillborn baby boy. It’s been so hard dealing with him being gone and not being able to feel him move anymore. My husband and I want to try for another but because of what happened my Dr wants us to wait 6months. I just hope and pray that our next pregnancy is healthy and we make it to the end. Thanks ladies for letting me tell my story.
