Hey - Congrats again

MissFox- Congrats on the birth of your cute little baby!

 

[MissFox]

Morning ladies! Thanks! I'm doing so much better now. I'm going to do a birthstory when I'm home and feelong a little better. Serenity Rose was born 4/11/11 at 11:21pm via csection. I was doing great got an epi at almost 8cm and they maxed the pitocin and my epidural stopped working. I thought I was going to die. When I decided to get the csection (no pain relief was working- and it felt like my pelvis was about to explode) the epi didn't numb me. They tried a spinal but it also wouldn't numb my belly so I had to be put under general anesthia to deliver. I made it 12+ hours of contractions and my original epidural only worked for 1 hour of it. I did damn well lol. When I woke up the nurse said there was no way baby would have fit since she was back to back and her chord was around her neck. Dr said that why I kept starting labor and it would stop and that she looked as if she was "done cooking" a couple weeks ago.

 

[southerngal2]

Glad you're feeling better.

Congrats again on your little girl.

Just got back from the Dr.
She said I was measuring a little small so I'm being sent for an ultrasound to check the baby's size and fluid levels.

Anyone else been told this? I'm not too worried because she didn't seem too worried, but you know how it is being pregnant, everything makes you nervous!

 

[lisaf]

I got the 'too big' result last week.
Make sure you drink lots of fluids before your ultrasound (and for a few days before too). It can help with fluid levels.

 

[RosieCheeks]

I have been getting "she is measuring small" as well. Doc said not too worry too much.

 

[blessedmomma]

can measure small from the position they are in and lots of other reasons that are not a concern. that might be the reason why she isnt worried. i would wait to see the sonogram before getting too worried.

Tested positive for group B strep Though it didn't seem as bad as I'd thought. My doc just said they ideally want to give me my first dose before my water breaks (obviously it could break without warning etc, lol!)
I don't think I'll have to rush to the hospital super fast after labor starts though, so thats good Just once my water breaks I have no choice but to go right in.
my mom's water didn't break until she was pushing so hopefully thats how it will go for me and I don't have to go early at all.
