Labor story: Monday May 11th me and my significant other went to a regular doctor appointment. After that we went to our high risk ultrasound for a growth scan of our son. The lady told us our amniotic fluid was a 4.5. she explained that last week it was a 6. Me and my man were a bit worried. They hooked us up to the stress test machine for 40 minutes. The doctor came in and told us he had news for us. He didnt have a frown so we figured it was good news. He said. "Jessica guess ehat i want you to do today?" i said what? he says "I want you to have a baby!!!" congrats. Me and my man were beyond shocked. We gathered our things and headed to the hospital. they put me on pitocin. later that night my blood pressure went up to 156. they told me theyd give me magnesium full strength in my iv to prevent any seizures. my body took the magnesium horribly. my heart rate was a 150bpm. i thought i was having a heart attack. they slowed the magnesium down and it went to normal after an hour. then later they tried to give me benedryl to help me sleep. my blood pressure went to 169 and my heart rate at 150 my chest was hurting so bad thry did an ekg to make sure i wasnt having a heart attack. ekg came out fine they gave me blood pressure medicine and it went down. anyway..... i was on pitocin from 5pm till 12am the next day. by the next day contractions got stronger but nothing i couldnt handle i did very well with them.got my epidural. they stopped the pitocin cuz i was only a fingertip dilated. they gave me cervadil at 12pm. by 12am i was 2cm. by 3am i was 7cm!!!! our baby boy was born 4:18am. labor was only 4 1/2 hours. it took a few pushes and he was out

Am I wrong to be upset? Last night I was running a fever, weak, tired, sore, my left boob feels like it got used as a punching bag. I asked my husband to call out of work today to help me with the kid so I could get some rest. He went to work. I texted him this morning. Part of me thinks I mean. The other part of me thinks I was fine for saying that because he should've stayed home with us.

ekko I see both sides. However, if you both work and him taking off one day isn’t going
2sweetie I’ve never asked my husband to take a day off when I’m sick. I just deal with
boymama523 He gets the choice to call off if he’s overwhelmed or sick. You (all us mommas) don’t.

Is it just my docs?

Idk why, but every time I go to the doctor they just check my blood pressure, weight, urine, baby's heartbeat, and send me on my way!

babybump_user My doctors don't do anything else either... However I saw someone different last week and she checked
babybump_user That's all my dr does. I just figured it's because all is going well. I know she
babybump_user Same here too! Except she also measures my belly. It's such a waste of time to go
