Well im not quite where i want to be, but I know that will just take some more time, therapy and prayers, but good news I'm on my way and ready to post Cru's birth story.
So most of ya'll know that i had to get an amnio that i was freakin out about. I was a nervous wreck the whole day waiting to go to the perinatologist and then waiting for the phone call from my doctor. Dh answered the phone and then i saw a huge smile on his face and i just started crying cause i knew this horrible nightmare was on its way to being over. So the next morning at 6 a.m. they called and we went. I was 37 weeks so still just a finger tip but 70% effaced. They started the oxitocin right away. At like 12:00 some old nurse came in my room (my mother in law just got a job at the hospital as the manager of labor recovery) so all these nurses wanted to meet me, didnt feel like chatting. Anyways this old nurse comes in and tells me that its going to take a few days!!!!! What the crap. I lost it!!! I said to my mom in tears i hate her, my mom was dying she didn't know what to do. Anyways after a while i calmes down and my doctor came and put some latex balloon in me and it got me dialtated to a 3 so i got the epi. Oh ya and apparently im allergic to latex i swelled up like 10 bee's stung me. I didn't know that i was. Then he came back at 5 and broke my water. I was doing really well, dh was hyper. He was asking the nurse if he could check me. I was like dont touch me! Then like suzanne already told you at about 10:30 i was saying i was feeling pressure and so the nurse checked me and i was at a 10 so we started practice pushes and i spit all over the nurses face i was apologizing and she was like "dont worry just push" Then she was suprised how fast he was coming so after 3 she told me to stop my doctor was there in like 5 minutes and i pushed through one contraction and Jeffrey Cru Hall was on my chest gooey. I didn't know he was gonna be gooey He was born at 11:22 6 lbs 3 oz 19.4 in and so spankin cute
As most of you i threw up for a bit after as everyone else is enjoying your new baby and your barfing I too had some lasting effects of hg for a while that and my medicine issue. But i have gotten my appetite back and not thrown up since delivery. I lost 18 lbs right away and everyone was telling me they were jealous, meanwhile im so weak i could barely walk, but whatever i want to set everyone strait but dh tells me its pointless that they'd never understand and he's right. So now im working on getting sleep (im an insomniac) and building up strength. I lift a can of pineapples as my weight I'll get there though. I love you all so much. Thanks for reading my story. I'm so glad I was able to post it. Kayla
