Well at about 39 weeks i hadnt dilated at all since 36 weeks. Dr.Nance was bringing up the idea of a c-section just in case. I really thought she would drop in the next week and have no problem. Well a day after my due date i went in for my check, and she was still high and i was still only dilated to a one!! Seriously..Then i was informed that if i didnt go into labor i couldnt be induced for another week. I lost it. Thank goodness my mom and sister were there with me. Well Dr. Nance scheduled a stress test to make sure everything was going ok. And we were still talking about the possibility of a c-section. So on wednesday morning i went in completley onery and dissapointed that i was 3 days over. They hooked me up and her fluids were good, her heartbeat was good and i was freaking out! Then they did my blood pressure, and it was high. Then they did it again and it went up! Is it bad that i wanted high blood pressure?!?! I was extremely swollen and they were worried about pre-eclampsia even tho 2 days earlier i was fine. Dr.Nance came in, winked at me and told me with those numbers my sweet baby would be born today! Man was i excited! I called Justin and told him to get his butt in the car and head home. With justin still at least two hours away, my awesome dad came and sat with me. He made my blood pressure go down. Imagine that?
I was hooked up and ready to go to get this baby out! Dr.Nance didnt even want me to try labor because he thought she was to big, and still way to high. and to be honest i had a moment of sadness but soon got over it. I wouldnt have to push, and she would have a great shaped head! My c-section kept getting pushed back because they were so busy with emergencies. Finally at around 4:15 i was taken back. I wasnt really nervous just so excited. Justin watched the whole thing. They were tugging and telling me she was a big baby....she just didn't want to come out. Especially when they popped my bag of water there was maconium (spelling?) so they were rushing to get her out. The other doctor had to basically stand on my belly and push to get her out while Dr.Nance pulled. They finally got her out and she was born at 4:59 pm. Her cry was the most beautiful thing i had ever heard! She weighed 7lb 9oz so not big i guess she just wanted to stay nice and warm!
The c-section was so painful but im glad i did it. It was way safter for her after all anyways!
Sorry its so long i just have lots to say apparently!
