My little angel Noah was born on Saturday morning the 15th at 6:45 AM weighing 3,880 kg and 55 cm tall.
On Friday I was sent to the hospital for monitoring because of my high blood pressure. I was supposed to be induced on Monday. But what a wonderful coincidence, I went into natural labor right after I arrived at the hospital. The hospital I was at doesn't do epidurals and since I was already 4 cm dilated when they checked, I wasn't allowed to have any sort of pain relief... and I begged them for it! About 10 hours after my contractions started, I was at 10 cm.... and then things started to go pretty wrong. I pushed for 2 hours but he wouldn't come down. His head was stuck.... these were probably the hardest two hours of my life. I was screaming bloody murder and vomiting all over the delivery room. They gave me an episiotomy but he was still stuck. Next they tried to get him out by vacuum, but after the third try failed the doctor decided that was enough and decided to give me a C-section. I was so disappointed that I had been through all that for nothing but so relieved the pain was finally about to end (that spinal tap was a godsend!). I was so extremely exhausted I don't think I could have pushed even one more time...
Even though the whole birth experience was pretty traumatic for my little family, we are so happy and blessed with our little man. It was so worth it! And it has made us closer than ever.
Congrats on all the new baby's and good luck to all the momma's who are still waiting on theirs!
Had a PPH but otherwise all well and off home later today.
