Its my turn. My labor story...
So ladies I came in for decreased fetal movement and I couldn't get him to move. I was due 11.14.11 but as soon as they hooked me up my contractions started up at 2 mins apart. I'm dilated to a 4 & 50% effaced. Contracting like crazy so they don't think I'll need any help. I'm so excited to hold my lil man...
Ok ladies so as you know I came in yesterday 10/30 for decreased fetal movement. As of the Wednesday before I was only 1cm dilated. Well as soon as they hooked me up to the monitors I started contracting every 2-3 mins (was doing nothing before getting hooked up). After a few mins of monitoring and a bag of iv fluid they checked me & discovered I was 4cm 50% effaced & -2 station. They decided to admit me and try some pitocin to strengthen contractions. They broke my water at 2am as I wasn't dilating but contracting like crazy 30 mins later I got my epi bc contractions got real strong and I was feeling a lot of pressure. The doc checked me I was 7cm 100% effaced & +1. As the doc was checking my she discovered he was still face up and had his hand covering his face which caused the umbilical cord to try and come out before him so I had to be rushed to the OR for an emergency c section (my first one and 3rd child) bc both my baby boy and I were in danger. So my bundle made his Grande entrance on 10/31 @ 2:58am with a weight of 6.12 & 19 1/4in long. He's absolutely perfect. Now I'm recovering but doing great and enjoying the best Halloween gift ever. All my remaining labor dust to all you ladies close. I wish you all the best of luck..
P.S. sorry kinda long lol
