Blood pressure is 140/85 and I feel soooo weird like I'm going to pass out. I am supposed to go to the hospital in like 9 hours for my c section. Should I go now because of this or just try to rest while I can. Maybe it's nerves?
Yeah that is what I remember. I don't believe it was an epidural that I got with Aiden. Cuz I don't remember them leaving anything in that time either. But at least it's quick. If I remember correctly, the shot part was all over in less than 2 minutes
@mamashane89, yeah but unlike an epidural it is just a shot and then it's out. Nothing stays in. And apparently it's supposed to be stronger? I've never had epithet but that's what the dr told me.
I wouldn't suggest eating anything just in case they do want you to be NPO (nothing my mouth) except for some fluids. It varies from Doctor to doctor, hospital to hospital. Your BP is slightly elevated but it could be due to nerves. If the feeling gets worse or you develop other symptoms I would go in. Good luck with everything!
Have you eaten anything? I can't remember if you are allowed to eat when you are getting a c-section. But if not, maybe try some crackers or something light. And it definitely could be nerves. I have been having nightmares about the epidural for my c-section because I remember how bad it hurt when I had my son. But that was almost 9 years ago so I am hoping they have made advancements in the process so it maybe won't be as bad.
