Me and my princess first time getting epidural and I’m numb from legs is this normal i can’t walk good yet
Checked in at 4am february 1st.. started my pitocin drip at 5. I was 3cm dilated when i checked in. Things were progressing pretty slowly until my doctor broke my water at 7 am. I got my epidural done when i was 7 cm dilated, my nurse came in to check me and said baby was in plus 1 station. From there it went rather quickly, once my cervix was complete, she did practice pushes with me, i did 3 practice pushes with a few contractions and she said not to practice push anymore because baby was crowning already. She went and got my doctor, 2 real pushes later and baby was out ! I have 2 tears, 6 stitches, and ones a 2nd degree. We got released the next day ! So glad to be home but its very stressful that my daughter isnt adjusting well. Jeremiah wayne havis, born at 10:56 a.m. february 1st, weighing 6 pounds 1 ounce at birth, 19 1/2 inches long. When we checked out he was 5 pounds 14 ounces. Born at 38 weeks 6 days!
My doctor said he would induce my labor at 38 weeks, if my baby girl still had growth issues and if the percentile dropped to 10 or less. Last thursday, it was 10 percentile, and he said if she didn't come on her own by 38 weeks, he would induce labor at that time. I'm 36 weeks 1 day today, he said my cervix was super thin, and 1cm dilated. Is there a possibility this can change... that my doctor will let her just come on her own? I don't want to be induced, i would much rather her come on her own when she is ready to come ! As much as I am anxious to meet her and have her home with me, those last few weeks of brain development and lung maturation means so much more to me! I'm hoping and praying that things turn around, and I don't have to get induced. I'm surely going to talk to my doctor about it Thursday when I go back.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
Got to the hospital at 4 am to start my pitocin, well.. I was put on the drip at 430 am , and was 4cm dilated and 80 percent effaced, an hour later. The nurse came in to check me, hours later, and I was at 6 cm. I got the epidural at 6cm.. But it didn't work for me, no more than 20 minutes later, I couldn't take the pain, I was screaming and crying.. And felt everything.. most terrible pain ever, I called for my nurse to come in and she checked me again, said I was ready to deliver, babys head was there. About 30 minutes of pushing, and 8 stitches later, 10:40 a.m. I gave birth to the most beautiful, little girl in the world, weighing 5 pounds and 8 ounces, 18 inches long! Welcome to the world Scarlette Jayde, youre so perfect.. and were so blessed to be your parents!! Even though I felt everything, and the epidural didn't work for me, I have to say the pain I felt was so worth it!!!

@mommyofaking, tell me about it!! People kept telling me "u will forget all the pain" while I was in labor, I was going crazyyy like I will never forget this night!! It's all a blur now! The moment they put him on me. I felt a huge relief! Even tho I still had contractions because they ran pitocin in me an extra 4 hrs!

@dovejazz, I'm ok! Taking one day at a time. So hard to raise him alone but I'm doing it. I left the hospital 2 nights ago! They had me there all week! Such a long stay. I'm exhausted. And one of my breast is clogged from feeding so it's super painful. Nothing comes out of it now. I thought the pain and symptoms ended at pregnanxy lol I can't believe I'm not preggo anymore . I'm so used to it :/

@mmmirage, ohh hun. That's good at least one day at a time. And don't forget to do your best not to stress cause ur baby boy. I can only imagine how hard it is and its your first time and all. I can't believe how he always ditches on you 😞 how come hun u stayed at hospital for that long?! U ended up giving vaginal birth right?! I can't believe u did this already and have your little prince with you awww ☺️👶💙 he looks so much like you

@dovejazz, thanks!! I'm trying my hardest not to stress but it hurts to imagine him remarry when I'm sitting here with our son. He keeps saying he will find someone who will make him happy. I dno Cuz I tried my hardest! I was at the hospital a long time because I was in labor for almost 3 days and then stayed 2 nights after that. 😰 it was so tough but I did it! I forgot about the pain now. Every1 says u forget and I'm like Yeh right! But it's so true! It's so worth the pain. Yeh I had vaginal birth!

OMG 😞 I feel ya. I can't believe How can he even?! Ohh I see... I went thru a lot girl. But I know the pain and all u can endure and go thru but the emotional side of relationship hurts the most. M sorry I really don't get him. Oh wow so it's true but we don't know for sure until we go thru it. I can't believe my time is coming up it feels surreal. So do u miss being preggo? Or it's just cause u need to readjust?!

I know right. How can someone be so heartless. I held on because I thought the baby will change him! I kept telling people that "watch, when he sees me in labor and how much pain I will go thru to have our son, he will change" I was wrong. Yeh ur time is around the corner! Can't wait to see ur baby! U will be so in love! I Dno if I miss being preggo but I'm in shock that im not preggo anymore . It was such a different feeling. Having someone inside u every second. Now they're out n free is how I can describe it, it may be my horomones talking but I want to get pregnant again lol. In the labor room, I said no more!! But now I think it's all worth it but Ofcourse with the right man. I don't want to be used and abandoned again 😰 it hurts sooooo much. @dovejazz

I can't believe it hun, and I don't get it really. What the hell is else gonna be better...like why is he so against u...why is he saying that some1 else would make him happy....he seems miserable then no1 can make him happy. Did u guys always fight since u been together? He's just immature I swear

@dovejazz, I can't believe it either. I'm just in shock! All 9 months, even when I was supposed to bed rest. I took care of him n cooked him his fav dishes ! Maybe he really does have a personality disorder because I have msgs from him from last week saying I'm the best thing that happened to him! We would argue but nothing major. At the hospital he told me mom to shut her mouth so Ofcourse ill take my moms side! He was so rude!!! 9 months is a long time and to deal with him was too much. He drained all my energy. I have barely anything left In me. He made the happiest times of my life the saddest moments. I have my son and I want to be so hAppy but I'm heartbroken so hard. Adam looks JUST like his dad I think! How can he give up when adam and I didn't get a chance to live a day with him! @dovejazz
