Topic: ER history
Hello
see pic attach.
I was forced to go ino labor wed. night because my fluid was leaking.
When
I arrived there, I was already 1 cen. dilated. (excuse any spelling
errors,
im feeling a little woozy right now and Im going to take a nap after
this!!)
Anyway they filled me with protocin and we waited while I heaved in
horror. I lasted about 10 hours or so without epidural and finally I
gave
in. Four hours after that epidural, I suffered about 5 more hours of
terrible contractions and had to get another epidural! The first one
was
not administered properly.
We waited about 3-4 hours more I only got 6 cen dilated and they feared
infection for him so a cesarean was the option. I hadnt eaten for 24
hours
or slept i was so weak....when wheeled into the operating room I was
completely shocked at how horrible the experience was. I never, ever
had
surgery.
Then when I felt them cutting into me, apparently the epidurals werent
strong enough, they had to knock my butt out! Alexander came out
wailing
and strong according to Glenn. 8 pounds 10 oz. 21 inches.
5:58 pm on Thurs. Apparently the problem was that his head was over the
uterus but facing upward instead of head down. I am now recovering
from
my ordeal and Alexander is a saint.
Official announcement cards will be sent out and we will be planning
the
shower in a few weeks.
Thanks for all of your love and support.
