Jeremiah`s birthstory

I had been told by my doctor that I would be induced on March 10th. March 6th I had started having pretty consistent braxton hicks and had been to the labor & delivery dept twice to only be sent home at 1 cent. I went to see my doctor Friday the 7th still in a lot of pain, she examined, streched my cervix to a good 2 cent a determined I was in early labor and that it was time. I was sent to labor & delivery at 6pm to be induced. My i.v. was started at 5:45 and I was placed on the monitors. To be honest I was in a lot of pain. I was checked several times before the cervadil was placed in my cervix at 6:30pm. I stayed at 2 cent for hours. My water broke naturally. Doctor came in at 10pm stretched me to 3 cent. I couldn`t deal with the pain so I had an epidural started, boy is this great. I recommend it. At this point I was really doing things on my on, contractions were strong so they didnt start pitocin. At 3am pitocin was started, they couldn`t figure how the baby was dropping so low but my cervix wouldn`t open past 4 cent. By 3pm on the 8th the nurse realized the baby was extremely low and was trying extremely hard to get out but I just wsn`t opening up for him. So consulted with my doctor, and to my disappoint informed that a c-section was needed, baby was getting tired and he was just too big to fit through my pelvic bone. Therefore at 5:26 pm on the 8th my son was born per c-section. It actually wasn`t as babd as I had told myself it would be. I was awake and dady was with me. I will say my 1st was vaginal and recovery was a breeze. Recovering from a c-section is very difficult for me and takes a lot of strength and will power, along with family support. I was told that the baby had gotten stuck in my pelvis bone and wouldn`t have made it without the c-section and ws so exhausted from trying to get out that he didn`t want to breathe on his own for about 5mins after birth. He is doing great and is healthy as can be.
