Well i had my baby girl march 18th/2008, was suppose to be due march 11/2008, but she didnt come willingly, i had to be induced, with the strip put inside. i went in on tuesday march 18th to be induced at 8 am. it didnt take right away, they kept me for an hour and sent me home and told me to come back if i had 6 contraction in less then 10 minutes, well i did at 11 am. i went back to the hospital. they put me on the monitor and i was havin contractions 2 minutes apart, but not as strong, but they were, it was all i mean mostly back labour i had.. they checked me, and i was 1 cm dialated. i was complained in the nurse that i felt pullin down there. they checked me, and the cervidil fell out, so i then went to walk around the hospital for a bit, waiting for it to get worse. i needed a drink so i told my sister and my boyfriend i was going back to the labour and delivery room and my sister was getting my cup of water and my water broke. thank god i was in the room. haha. after that contractions got worse. and they wanted to test me to make sure it was my water. because it wasnt a gush it was dribble and it was green. she pooped inside me. they wanted to check me again i was still 1 cm and like 1 pm. and then i waiting around in pain from all the back labour, it was horrible i couldnt sit or anything. so i had to do a slow dance thing to help. they checked me again around 4-5 pm, and i was 4 cm dialated. i was so happy, thats mean i could get some pain relief. i tryed the laughing gas. and that did nothing for me, i couldnt breath, so i need the air mask, then they told me i could have the epidural, but we had to wait a bit of the dr to come and do it. i will tell you what a rude as bitch that gave me the epidural. it took them 6 trys with the wrong needle.(to small) to give me the epidural, and finally about an hour or half hour they got it in. and then they checked me again and i was 10 cm dialated, but i wasnt aloud to push and had to wait for the doctor another 2-3 hours. and pushed for little less then an hour. i had her at 9 pm that night.

They dont classify labour here until you are 4cm dilated. so i was lucky.. after having her, i bled alot, pph, they had to give me the shot in the leg with that needle twice, plus 3-4 other medications for it.

i was fine after a few hours laying in my own blood etc, i was able to get up and the next morning they to the iv off with the meds and gave me another one with the need. i was released the next day at 5 pm the next day. bleeding was good. not heavy, just really light. i went back to the doctors 3 days later because i had a bad odour and they prescribe me a medication, well then that went away, 3 weeks post partum, april the 9th i had heavy bleeding again., the doctor gave me another medication thinkin its an infection. that didnt do nothing, didnt help the bleedin lessen, i then went back to the doctors and 2 other doctors, figured it was a little weird, that the bleedin hasnt stop and its getting worse., they said the only way they are gonna rule out if its an infection or whatever they would try and rush and ultrasound. so i had the internal and regular ultrasound, only to be told, i have to wait for a week for results. well screw that. i was passin large blood clots, with gushes of blood fillin a bad in less then a hour, the first time with with 2 large blood clots and fillin a pad in 10 minutes. so it continue and continue, i couldnt go anywhere, do anything, i went up to emergency for the bleeding, just to be turned down, by to nurses that no nothing, all they said it was normal. and i told them, it wasnt and the first doctor said its not at 3 weeks postpartum. so anyway, i went home. the next day the doctor that i seen before, said they would get the results faxed up, so they did that. and they found that my uterus/cervix was thick. they had to consult a better doctor. a top gyno doc, so i had to wait down at the clinic until the one doctor was availible to call back the doctor. and my doctor is on holiday, she a top gyno to. so they got ahold of the doctor, and he wanted me at the hospital right away, well what they didnt tell me was not to eat. and stuff. so i went up at 12 pm on april 16th, for a d&c they couldnt do it until later that night because i ate. so i had to wait till 8 pm for the D&c to be done, They found a peice of placenta still inside me. which was good that they caught because i could of bled to death from it. And im still thinking about putting a complaint in about the nurses at the hospital that night. its not like i hang in emergency for nothing. i had the d&c, i feel way better now, and im not to sure if i wanna see the same doctor as i was seeing for my baby girl. because they are suppose to make sure its all out, but i dont think they did, and im not sure if want any more kids after this, i didnt get to enjoy the first month of having my doctor because this crap. it was a retained placenta that i had. and it was secondary postpartum hemmroage that i had....

thanks for your advice. went back to doctors yesterday and she put me on the mini pill to see if this controls it. still not convinced it will!


aims123 - Wednesday, 9 July
hey, just read your page, as i saw a comment you posted, that sounds really similar to me, regarding your bleeding after birth. first of all i want to say sorry, as i know how you feel. i gave birth 7 weeks ago and am still bleeding a bright red blood. on three occasions i have soaked through pads, underwear and clothes uncontrolably! it only lasts for around 30-40 mins and then it's back to a normal amount, the first 2 times i passed large clots also. i too got put on antibiotics but am still bleeding, but only a normal amount. i'm also being told that it's normal by the doctor, but i just don't believe it is, i'm scared to go any where incase i have the heavy bleeding again! just wondered if your heavy bleeding was continuous or just at times like mine?

Is that the size 1 on the jumperoo? I know there are three settings on the strap. I would imagine she should be able to reach it by now.


Maddux - Monday, 7 July
Hi, can your little girl reach the floor when she is in her jumperoo. My daughter is about a week older than yours and I have to put pillows and stuff under her feet. Maybe I don't have it set up right.

mummof2 - Wednesday, 25 June
I agree with you. I'm from Canada as well and I am talking full advantage of my year off! I never got it with my first child ( I started a new job when she was 4 months old) and I missed a whole lot!


Grace - Tuesday, 24 June
what is marvelon 28? sounds like you had a really bad experience, sorry. let yourself rest. it's good to warn others of your experiences. hope things get better.


Grace - Tuesday, 24 June
what birth control are you on? and are you nursing? I'm curious about that . I've gotta get on something. Yeah I think I had a piece of the placenta fall out after the first week because I was standing there just talking to my grandma and then I started bleeding, and soaked an overnight pad in a few minutes. But after the clot fell out no more bleeding. Went right back to normal. Thanx for any info.


mizzsnazzy - Saturday, 21 June
Yeah you're absolutley right becauyse when I gave birth I had like a little bit bigger than quarter size clots coming out but that was a few days and it only happend once a day. But the nurses told me to pay attention and tell em if it was any bigger than that that its serious and I need to come back ASAP because I could die. That is how you should've been treated. So go ahead and raise hell, don't let them get away with this, because who knows, maybe they are this dumb with everyone else, but others might not be so lucky as you.


mizzsnazzy - Saturday, 21 June
WOW you had a pretty bad birthing experience! I'm so glad you are fine now though. Have u put in the complaint or no? I would have. Anyways, what a gorgeous little girl you have! Congrats!

rabekah - Wednesday, 18 June
Wow you've had a tough birth and rough healing process. Thanks for the advice on the bleeding. How are you now? How long did it take for everything to get back to normal? Your daughter is beautiful.
