I am a 20 year old wife and mother to a 1 week 3 day old baby boy. I had such an easy pregnancy but as soon as labor hit it was too much pain to even try to describe. After 20 hours of labor, 2 hours of pushing they told me he wasn’t coming out vaginally. When it came out that they were taking me into the operating room in 10 minutes to get him out, none of my family knew what to think or what it meant. After delivering a 10.3 pound baby we stayed in the hospital for a week and it was tough but when we got home it became a whole lot tougher. The first day I thought I had pneumonia, which they said might happen from putting me under during the operation. The second day, I caught a glimpse of my incision and thought it might be infected. And its not just the physical pain, emotionally I feel like crying nonstop because I want to be able to do stuff that the doctor told me not to do. I want to be able to take care of my son instead of people trying to take care of me. This has been so hard and I thank my parents and husband every second for all the help they put in. Any one who does it alone or is going through something similar to me, I give props because I never expected it to be this hard and I couldn’t imagine doing it alone.
