Everything came back great, except my blood pressure which was higher than what it had been throughout my pregnancy. So, with that being said, they sent me to Labor and Delivery.”

“About an hour of me being there they admitted me. Well, at about 12 a.m. that night the doctor came in and put some gel inside me to help soften my cervix. About 2 a.m. my contractions started and HURT soo bad.”

“The doctor came in and gave me morphine to help me sleep. Well the following morning came and they started pitocin at 8 a.m.; at 11am they broke my water and found meconium. I cried soo bad and I was soo worried, but they reassured me she would be fine. Well, shortly after that I wanted the epidural ... she was already at a +1 and she was ready. Well, the doctor came in I got my epidural and I slept for about 2 hours ... and around 4 p.m. her heart rate was dropping. The doctors rushed in and I was at 9 ½ cm and they had me push.”

“A few pushes and she was ready to come out so they got a pediatrician in there and a few other doctors due to her shoulder's getting caught. They pushed up on my pelvis and I had to push really hard and out she came. She was rushed over to the pediatrician and they cleaned out her lungs and stomach and everything was great. I had a perfect vaginal birth with no tears and or cuts. The only thing that went wrong was I had excess bleeding. But that's my story and thanks to all for reading.”
