| | Andrew Robert's Birth
My ob came in @ 8am to break my waters, omg that so wasnt even fun i hated n cried and screamed like a big baby. It slowly progressed. my fluid wasnt clear so he'd done his bizzo before hand go figure lol After a few hrs things got a bit 50/50 as my pre eclampsia was showing signs of turning up again so i ws being monitored the whole time and his heart rate wasnt steady so they were concerned, i started puffing up and my BP was high. I gave into the gas after 4 hrs but that made me sick so i gave the pethidene shot and it was great, my contracts started getting stronger and more intense, just before 5pm i was due for my next lot of pethidene but they didnt really wanna give it to me but in the end they did.
next thing i remember was my OB being there and getting ready for me to push bubbs out with the help of forcipes, so one push i felt his head, 3mins i pushed again and out he popped. it was such a great feeling to have my baby put on my chest. I am sooo happy i went through with it, altho at the time lol i wasnt so sure if i could do it lol.
Thats my story lol well from what i can remember
