Congratulations! You did a great job even when things were difficult.
And for your DH's ex: I hope that what goes around comes around. What an unkind thing to do!

Congratulations! Your labor sounds very similar to mine. My little girl was face up as well. The pain and pressure was just horrendous, luckily I was able to deliver her without a c-section. ( I was asking for one though..)

 

[Proserpina]

Congratulations! My son was posterior and vacuum-extracted. The vacuum popped off once and they called for the c-section team to get ready when that happened, but I got him out. My nurse commented to me that she often sees women wind up with c-sections due to posterior presentation. I'm sorry to hear that you were one of them, but glad she's here now safe and sound.

>>>Over the next hour, I successfully delivered more poop than you could possibly imagine ...but no baby.<<<

This made me laugh so hard. Thanks for the giggle.

Thank you all for your kind words! We are back home and in heaven. She's actually doing much better at home than in the hospital. Feeding every 2.5 hours, going right to sleep. Here's hoping I'll be able to get in on some of that soon...

I wanted to share the photos DH took just before the C-section and therafter. I think they tell the story pretty well, and maybe will make anyone fearing this kind of birth feel a bit better.

Enjoy!
