Omg, I feel your pain. I bled a lot, so my OB did a uterine sweep to make sure no placenta buts we're still inside. I was totally unmedicated. I resisted the urge to kick him in the face, barely.
Omg, you're so strong! When I had DS, the Dr had to reach inside once just to make sure no piece of the placenta was left. (My cord had also detached but the placenta got out in what we thought was one piece when another small piece got out like 30 min later. Hence the digging to make sure it was the last piece). And it was more painful than pushing my baby out!
You're fantastic! I'm glad you got your VBAC but I'm so sorry about the problems with the placenta. That's scary! Will they be keeping you longer for observation?
They're still worried about infection but they did an ultrasound and it seems clear. I've been watched more carefully. Heck, didn't let me off the labouring floor for 7 hours instead of 2
Omg! I had 4 unmediated uterine sweeps after my second was born!!! I had a low lying placenta and bled a lot in delivery, so they made sure all of it came out. I wanted to kick my OB in the gut.
It's called a retained placenta. I hemorrhaged bad. She literally stuck her entire arm inside of me and ripped the rest of the placenta out. I'm hoping it doesn't happen again with this next labor. It was pretty traumatic. I had the epidural but I could still feel it. ?
Dang ironman.. my uterus hurts for you ? But seriously, congrats on your new baby and all the work throughout your pregnancy to try and encourage a VBAC outcome! You are such an inspiration!
Welp. I didn't even know that was possible...... is it too early for me to second guess a natural birth? ? Damn, you are a warrior. Congratulations on your vbac and baby girl!
My ob had to go back up and get out blood clots before I went to the OR and that was 10x worse than giving birth, and I had the epidural. You're a strong woman!

Kinda the same thing happened to me.
It's called a retained placenta. I hemorrhaged bad. She literally stuck her entire arm inside of me and ripped the rest of the placenta out. I'm hoping it doesn't happen again with this next labor. It was pretty traumatic. I had the epidural but I could still feel it. ?

Omg iron ? I'm cringing in phantom pain.
Are there follow ups to make sure you're all clear after this? No worry of infection?
And congratulations!!!!
