Congrats marumi!! I hope he feels better soon. I can't imagine how scary it is to have him be sick. I'm very jealous of your quick labor!!!


I was back in the hospital last night. Needed a blood transfusion but I'm feeling better now.

 

[Bekah78]

Good to hear you're feeling better Sara.

Jaxson James was born at 8:48PM after 5 sets of pushes! He looks soo much like his brother its crazy! Nursing like a champ already
I will update more tomorrow, im going to try to get some rest

Omg only 5? You must have done power pushes!! Congrats on your baby!


Trystan Aílean was born on the 19th at 4:26 AM after only 2 hrs of active labor. It was intense and painful because it went so fast. I was already 3cm when I got to the hospital and ready to push within an hour. I was exhausted after. The first picture was taken just after birth lol. This was a VBAC for me btw.!
Trystan seems to have caught some sort of infection, possibly lung so he has to be monitored and it's been tough. I will update more when we feel better. He already seems to be improving though.

Lol yes. I have spots on my face from pushing so hard !

Short version of the labor and birth....
contractions started 4AM. got to the hospital at 10AM and was 3CM, told me to walk for 2 hours and come back to get checked again and was 4CM. got moved to the delivery suite from triage. got a dose of IV meds and fluids cuz i knew i was gonna get an epidural but didnt wanna have to wait for fluids when i asked for it lol by the time i was done with the fluids i was ready for it..i was shaking in pain with every contraction, at this point they were 2 min apart! after the epidural set dr checked me and i was 7ishCM. contractions kept coming 2 mins apart and within like 2 hours i was complete and he was +4. my water hadnt broken so i let em break it then they said to wait til it felt like i needed to poop and to call em. bout 45 mins later i called em and pushed for 15-20 mins and he literally flew out once his head cleared




Congrats on your VBAC!!!!!! Hes so handsome!

We'll still be here for you Emma. At rate I'm going I might not be much before you anyway. Odd braxton hick here and there but that's all.

Seeing the consultant today. Was told they'll likely do a sweep but read somewhere they only have a 25% chance of getting things started so I'm not holding out much hope.

 

[StephtheHiker]

I'm here too. Awake at 2am with painful contractions but they just aren't getting steady. 3 to 5 minutes apart and 60 to 90 seconds long. No idea when to go in and I don't want to wake up my friend and our dd in the middle of the night unless we have to. Pink blood every time I go to the bathroom. Wish we didn't live an hour away from the hospital including our daughter's drop off!

 

[emma4g63]

Thanks bekha

U never know if a sweep cud work...my last one with dd was failed as my cervix was too far back but if its favorable ur in with a shot xx

Steph sounds like ull be avin baby any day now

Eeek....

 

[Bekah78]

Hope things start to progress for you in the morning Steph.

It could Emma, and more favourable than being induced which is the follow up plan. Xx

 

[Ganton]

I'm still here too and, given that my other two were born on or after due date, there's a good chance I'll be sticking around for a while yet.

Emma, how far along were you when your first arrived?

I agree that I think there's a good chance of a sweep working if you're already favourable. My first couldn't even be done, but the second sweep with DS1 and my sweep with DS2 both worked pretty quickly.

 

[emma4g63]

Ganton i was induced at 40 plus 12 and had her at 42 weeks dot on !! Blah was a pretty rubbish experience...

Dont want to be overdue again i think its the worst !!.

With my bp borderline now abd creepin im oping miwife tommorow or friday mentions due date induction...
