I am New to SFV |
I was induced with all 4 of my kids. They were all fairly easy. They only long part was being hooked up to the Pitocin all day and not feeling anything happening. Once my Doctor broke my water it was about 2 or 3 hours if that with each of my 3 boys. My daughter on the other hand, who was also my last, was a problem since the beginning!! March to May of 2004 I did not get my period so I took many tests thinking that I was pregnant but all my tests were negative! So I called the doctor and they said if you dont get it in like a month or something to call and come in. I got it 2 weeks later and went about my summer like every other year. They said it was probably caused by stress. 4 kids can do that to you!(I had a step son at the time) Well the end of summer came and I missed my period again in September! Well, stress again!! My fiancee at the time was going on his 2 week Canada fishing trip and then starting school once he got back and I was left home just about 24/7 to deal with all the boys. So I did not find out I was pregnant with her til just before Christmas! How could I not know? I know!! I hadnt lost all my weight from my son and I didnt think anything of missing my period cause it happened earlier in the year. So this one day, I felt the butterfly thing in my stomach like when you can first feel the baby move! I just kinda sat there by myself thinking NO WAY!! I grabbed my week by week book that I had bought when I was pregnant with my son. I went to where you could feel the baby move and it said 20 weeks you should be able to feel baby moving!! I was 20 weeks! And 1/2 way through my pregnancy!! So we really werent sure on a due date. My date I gave the doctor brought me to like June 9 of 2005 and when I went for my ultra sound the baby was measuring EDD of May 9!! A whole month earlier!!I also towards the end had nurses ask about my blood pressure cause they thought it was a little high and I cant even remember what other things came up but she for sure gave me the most problems during my pregnancy and delivery!! I ended up with a C-section on May 25, 2005 and my little Payton Luna was born. They kept loosing her heart rate every contraction and I wasnt dilating fast enough to be able to deliver! I for sure would not have minded delivering like any of my boys but she had different plans!! Thats ok cause she was worth it!!

Labor, well, i went in for a normal check up, my blood pressure was too high(preeclampsia-which could cause you to have a seizure or a stroke) so they admitted me to get my blood pressure down, ended up testing my urine which was too high in protein so they started the induction process, 40 HOURS later, i started pushing, 4 hours later of straight pushing, they called for a c-section. I was 18 at the time(now 19) and i had a boy weighing 8 lbs 15 1/2 oz. and he was 3 weeks early! i was in the hospital for a week.. OUCH!
