Sweet lol

you are welcome @haidensmommy021512 .. I also got a 18-24 hour morphine thru my spinal before they removed it so that really helped with pain management

I didn't when they put it in and I didn't feel it while it was in... I felt a little pressure while they removed it @josiah16

Thanks so much @sarahdrew

Yea u do have to get a catheter did u feel it or no ? @sarahdrew

Oh I did forget, they didn't put the catheter in until after my spinal

I'm sure there were other little things I forgot lol but I think I got the major points in there lol

that's step by step what happened lol it was by far easier the second time for me (emergency the first time)... even in the hospital it was easier @josiah16

@sarahdrew, great story

I went in at 6 to registration and they took me up to labor and delivery, they had me get in my gown and lay in the bed, they asked me the usual questions ( weight at last appointment, allergies, baby's Dr etc).... they drew blood, hooked up my iv, and shaved the area (I hadn't been able to shave in awhile myself lol)... the anesthesiologist came in around 7 and introduced himself and told me how the spinal would be administered... they had me drink the stomach acid neutralizer (it's horrible), they had my husband put his scrubs on and gave me my beautiful bonnet lol then at about 7:45 they took me to the or.... they had me sit on the table with my legs dangling over one side (a nurse was standing there) and wait until my Dr got there and they said they would do the spinal while he was scrubbing in... my Dr was late so me and all the nurses and the anesthesiologist had a huge conversation lol.... he finally got there and they did the numbing for the spinal (a small pinch and a slight burn) and put the spinal in... by the time they went to move me back to the middle of the table my butt was numb lol, my Dr came in and apologized for being late.... my husband came in soon after, they cleaned my belly and then the Dr put the curtain thing up and over my belly and the rest as they say is history, he started at like 8:20 and my daughter was out at 8:26
