Well ladies had an eventful last 12 hrs. Went to bed and woke up at 3am with a contraction that wouldn’t stop. Was mildly painful. Decided to go pee to help it stop, and my water broke on the toilet. But it was my water plus a hemorrhage. So we went to the hospital and they said my placenta was detaching and monitored baby for a while, but I wasn’t really going into labour and they didn’t think baby would tolerate an induction so I had a C SECTION!! For my last baby lol. We are both doing well now and she’s a champ nurser. I was laughing with my midwife because literally everything I didn’t want on my birth plan came to pass XD. But I wasn’t mad at all and wasn’t even that nervous for a c section. The spinal made me wonder why I never used an epidural before lol. Anyways we will go home Sunday morning if all is well with me, Meadow is doing great.
I need your tips for c section aftercare though. I’m glad my vagina isn’t sore (tbh the incision isn’t sore at all either) but I don’t know how to function without using my tummy muscles. Also my uterus normally shrinks right back down to a flat tummy very soon after vaginal delivery and right now it’s still a bit on the larger size so I don’t know if pushing has anything to do with helping that and if I’ll be stuck with a big tummy!!
