sorry for the late post! sophia came at 39 weeks exactly! it started off as a regular day then my german shepard (sasha) was acting weird and after every contraction (i was in labor without knowing it cause my high pain tolerance), sasha would go to the bathroom so i figured id go get checked at l&d well i got there and got put on the monitor well the doctor came in and looked at the paper & frowned then left then came back and was like not to scare you but your daughter will be here either tonight or tomorrow cause im not liking what she's doing on the monitor so either you will be induced or we will have to do a c section depending on how she looks in a few. then he went on to tell me is she's too big for my body and what's happening is when i have a contraction her heart rate drops dramatically. her heartrate is normally 135-140 well during a contraction it dropped to 100-110. well i was in labor for 21 gave birth with a epi naturally and didn't tear! but basically if sasha wasn't acting weird i wouldn't have gone in and got checked and sophia couldve possibly died, sasha saved sophias life. im forever grateful of our dog. sophia looks JUST like her daddy. she has brown hair & hazel eyes. i will upload pictures of her as my avi and bigger ones of her later but i wanted to share my birth story!
