Hello,
This is my second pregnancy I am now 18 weeks along but the last few days I have felt like I have been carrying a bowling all between my legs. It seems to be getting worse each day.
I had a terrible first birth & 2 years later I am still very sore and tender from my episotomy (It took 12months to heal) now it aches all the time. I also looked "down there" and much to my horror something is falling out! I went to my OB and he didnt even look at it, he just felt around and said I was fine & that I have terrible damage done to my bladder, bowels and uterus.
My first labour was 18 hours long, my son was posteriora & I was stuck in transition from 11pm till 7am the next morning when they decided to get a dr in so he could deliver my baby with forceps as I wasent making any progress. I was sliced from here to there and my beautiful son was born.
Then my placenta was quickly removed and I haemorrhaged quite severely. I passed out every time they tried to stand me up. I was so weak I could not even life my baby to feed him
To make matters worse I was sent home after 7 days and was so week an sick I didnt know what was wrong with me. 2 visits to the DR and he finally gave me an utrasound to find that I had retained placenta & HUGE blood clots. 12 days later I was back in hospital having a D&C. As I stated before it took me a good 12 months to recover. my Dr knows all of this and he is still insisting I have natural birth instead of a C Section. I am terrified!!! and now all this heavy feeling like i have just given birth is comming back and doesnt seem the slighest bit concerned! Has anyone else experienced any thing similar?
Thanks any advice would be greatly appreciated.
