Well havent been on in FOREVER! I found out when i went to the doctor on April 10th that I was dilated to a 4 and was 75% and my braxton hicks were in fact REAL! I was only 33 weeks. So i was put on a medication and while waiting in line at the pharmacy for it I indeed felt more intense contractions and pressure! So I left and went straight to the ER and I was contracting every 2 minutes!!! :/ By the time my doctor arrived I was starting to progress a little more so they started me on magnesium and betamethazone shots to develop her lungs and try to stop labor! But my doctor in Bartlesville doesnt take preemie babies born before 35weeks. So they called the hospitals in Tulsa to transfer me but they wouldnt until my contractions were more spread out, so they then upped my magnesium (which sucked) and finally got me trasnfered to St. Johns! By the time I got there and was rechecked they stated i was at a 4.5 and was 75% effaced with a bulging bag. they did an ultrasound which made her measure 4.12lbs. Magnesium was slowing labor but my cervix was still thinning, so they told us to expect a baby within 48hrs. (WOW right). So here we are rushing like fools! They gave me another shot the next day and took me off of magnesium so we could just go on with the labor process. Needless to stay IT STOPPED! My contractions were irregular and my body was staying put! YAY. They told me that my water could break anytime, etc. But i infact stayed in the hospital anther week, and i then noticed ITCHING AND ITCHING in my palms and feet. I told the doc and they ordered a series of bloodtests and a few days later confirmed I had Cholestasis of Pregnancy! SCARY. My gullbladder was secreting bile into my blood and making me toxic so they scheduled me for induction at 36 weeks. But 2 days before the induction.... they rescheduled it for that morning! Oh ya freaked me out i thought i had a lil more time to prepare. So on April 27th they transfered me back to L&D and started Pitocin (which i didnt want) to kick start my labor wince i thickened up a lil bit! & My contractions werent getting any more regular so once I was thinned out enough at 3:45pm THEY BROKE MY WATER! && Thats when it all started! My contractions went into overdrive. & They rechecked me and said your at a 6-7 and almost fully effaced. So im like ok about another hour and a half til shes here, NOT! She had other plans! 15mins later I felt that oh soo well known (if youve had a child before) POOP FEELING! And I had to push! I called the nurses and dr came in and they were getting ready and trying to calm me down (BTW I do unmedicated natural deliveries, so ya slightly painful) and BAM part of her head was out and a few pushes later, Presaya Tamera Kay Miller was born Apirl 27th, 2012 @ 4:29pm! Weighing 6lbs 3 oz (she had retained alot of water) and was 18 1/4inches long! When she was born she had trouble breathing so was transfered to NICU where they found her heartrate extremely high and her oxygen was low and her bilirubin levels were high! After getting over all of it we had a 8 day stay in the NICU and we brought her home 5-5-12! Shes now 11 days old and FLOURISHING!!!!
