I COULD OF DIED.
Well almost six or seven months into my pregnancy I sometimes felt like my heart was racing and or skipping beats but that came with tighting of me belly which I thought was braxtion hicks contraction, I really didn't pay it any mind seeing how my pregnancy was so going so well no medical issues just that my iron was low..anyhow in march I opted for an elective c section for many reasons than one ppl at my doc office called me the crazy lady because it was my first and I wanted a c section. So my doc planned it on exactly my due date..the day before the canclled my section I was higly upset about waiting months for that special day had it booked in advance for them to then piss me off. Next day the called me in to do the section went in got hooked up everythings is going good 15 mins before surgery I started going into labor woo that was no fun contraction is a mutha. Walked down to the operating room the stared the spinal rigt away I couldn feel my legs and I hate to feel numb...when he laid me flat I couldn breathe I felt like I was chocking so the had to tilt me up then came this massaive headache that I swore my head would explode....I dnt remember much from the section just that wen the showed me my daughter I cried my eyes out..after waking up from the drugs I still felt like my heart was racing and couldn take deep breaths I told the docs and nurses but no one seem to understand or find a reason why so I got discharged Friday I had the baby the Tuesday on the Saturday I checked my self into the er which they discovered I had a lot of fluid in my lungs my heart was swollen and my blood pressure was high its called peripardum cardiomyapthy (spelling) moral of the story is if ur feel like somethings wrong dnt dismiss it...doc said I could of died if I. Was gonna have a normal delivery caz my heart would not be able to with stand such strain..I was devasted that am in my late 20s and having this problem my daugter was only 4 days old and I could of died leaving her behind in this crazy world we live in with no mom to protect her I just couldn stop thinking about her and what living meant for both of us. Now I can breath and blood pressure down and my heart is not racing anymore caz the gave me water pills so I have to follow in and see what's next if nothing changes they told me they would advise I never get prego again..I will keep u guess updated if anyone cares lol.
