How did your delivery go?

I was induced at 38 weeks because I had GD and my son was measuring large.

26 hours of labour. Didn’t feel a thing. I got the epidural before I was even 1cm dilated. Progressed well. Was on pitocin. My husband and I watched movies all night.

My epidural fell out at 7/8cm dilated and had to wait for the anesthesiologist who was in surgery to come back for a second. Holding still through contractions at that point to get a second really sucked and from going 0-100 pain was not ideal. 😅

After the second epidural, there was a shift change in doctors. And the second doctor noticed my son had flipped over/was breeched. So I had a c-section. It was quick, in the OR in 15 minutes.

I was up and walking same day. I had no issues moving or walking our dogs when I got home. Our house had 2 flights of stairs I climbed many times a day. Easy peasy.

I had some post birth complications but nothing slowed me down. We went on vacation 3 weeks PP. we went to trivia every tuesday for 2 years befo

My last one was a week past due, she was stubborn. I got induced and was in labor for 13hrs. Got the epidural at 7cm, it ended up failing so I felt everything once it was time to push. I did say I wanted to go natural I guess that was God's way of giving me what I asked for 😂.
