Ali ,
Her name is Windsor Gail. All family name
Thanks so much. I was worried but I've never been so in love and in love w her daddy too. He's so great with her it's unreal.
Kt- I'm gonna tell you That's hard. I'd say labor pain is way worse. Why? Bc I couldn't get rid of it at all. The elidurals weren't working properly and they kept giving me bolus ( straight into my epidural catheter) instea od just letting it drip. I mean my line was being fed with meds but it wAsnt enough. I thought several times ( 3 to be exact) that I would pass out.
Plus I can change positions etc and get out of pain from c-section. Long term id rather. It have section and it's pain.
What yu guys don't know is that I had the 3 choices but they had to invert my or table to try to get me numb hire into my abdomen and the dr was afraid it would wear off to fast so my c section was rough. The dr ( who we know refs ally bc his friends are ur next door neighbors) was worried about it.not enou to not try but he knew that there was e possibility it would not take or wear off. There was a team in place to put me under general anesthesia if it worked off etc.... My point it, he was fast and it was rough and i was panicked. Never ever been that scared in my lifel so even my section wasn't good. It was hurried and painful. She's totally worth it but next time obviously I'd have section scheduled and d it with way. My recovery has been extra bad bc of trauma in the first 20 hours of regular labor and the amount of medications and plugs they put in. Next. The it wooden be like this
And no one told me about not feeling pain after section bc epidural. My epidural w taken out when I passed out after the section. I woke up in recovery and was given some oral psalm meds...so I had a lots of pain immediately following,my section. But still pain wise- id say labor is worse. And my section pain is worse bc I refused mess other than motrin ( ex strength). Im very sad I can't get up and help do this to her or that. We are getting our snuggle meme and breast feeding time but still.... Im read6 to not be helpless... I want om be up WMD mobile and this and that.
What did you think?
Angie, if you on looking and may e don't have time to post anything. Ut just checking...everyone has a diff story and sets of obstacles..you can do it and a section is not a failure. I do not think I failed at all...in fact I made it to atleast 6 cm with no epidural or mess and I refused all IV narcotics like Demerol etc. bc I didn't want her getting it. By no means do I think I failed so if something happens be open to it. This wasnthe best advice I was given so thought I'd share.
Have y'all ever heard from Angela again.????
