I had a c-section because the baby's head wouldnt fit because I am shaped weird down there!!...I would definitly do it again. I wouldnt take as much medicine though because I would rather be able to enjoy the birth of my child more, and remember more about it. I am happy with the doctors decision to give me a csection and I am glad that I am still going to be able to have children in the future

*funny moment: I was on to balls bouncing up and down, trying to get his head to drop, and I was holding onto my mom on the back and my sister in law onthe front and all of a sudden I just burst out with I wanna go to six flags in st. Louis!! How random is that?*

yes I would do it again. My doctor was great, the nurses were great, and they treated me great. They pushed me but they knew that they had to. I loved every minute.

My labor was 29 hours long and I had to push for 4 straight hours. My epidural wore off since I had to push for so long they weren't expecting that. So mine was quite painful..I felt it all!!! That was with my first and only child so far. I had to push for so long because my pelvis was soo small and her head already started to descend so they couldn't do a c-section. I would do it again no matter how painful it was well worth it!!!

~sara~ I also would recommend getting an epidural. But remember
that if you wait too long to get it..You won't be able to. They
will let you know when you get to the point of being able to
have one.

I went through 23 hrs of painful labor, only dialated to 4 and ended in a c-section. I was never going to have kids again which made me really sad cause I knew I wanted more but I would have never gone through it again, except at my 6 wk. Check up my doctor told me I had a choice for a c-section next time! That was the best news I ever heard!! And the twins scheduled c-section when great! And i'm sure this one will too!

Ahh the joys of the head not fitting!!

Well they were going to enduce me but my water broke that morining so they didnt need to. After my water broke my contractions were just about 3 mins apart thank goodness the hp was just around the corner. But wen I got there everything went pretty fast I almost missed my epidural right after they gave it to me I had become 10 cen. I was happy cuz contractions were hell, after they gave me the epidural I kept asking for more (i was so scared) they had to stop my epidural b/c I was so numb I couldnt push right but I was in labor for only 4 hours nd he came out nice and easy.

I hope that wen I do have another one its as easy as my first

I am not going to share mine, because it was pretty bad and I don't want to scare the expecting mothers. All you need to know is that my little girl is now healthy and happy. She weighed 5lbs 2ozs!

Kelly

Gosh kelly-that must have been really tough at the age u were (im sure it was worth it 4 that cutie of a daughter u have!).I hope things go better with this little one :d
liz x

It was tough but as you said, well worth it! I am sure everything will go alot better this time cause I am 19 and not 13! Lol

kelly

I will post it later today, its kinda long and I am starving so I am gonna go eat! Lol all I will say now is that I will be lucky if I can have this baby vaginally because having christina, I cracked my pelvic bone cause it was way too narrow. Obviously at 13 your body isn't equipt for labor. But I hope I can have this one vaginally.

Kel

Kel, i'd love to hear "read" your story!

When I went into labor I was at a friend's house and we were laughing and getting ready for the 4th of july(it was the 2nd) and just like out of no where I get these intense contractions, to where I am literally doubling over in pain and she starts freaking out, and I am like ok dude chill out! I told her I don't know what to do get your mom! Lol my water ended up breaking when I was walking to the cafeteria at the hospital, I was getting some jello and bam, I was like oh crap! Lol from then on it was long, exhausting and excruciating! My pelvic bone was too small and she was too far down to do a c-section so my pelvic bone started cracking, christina got stuck and they tried the vacuum ,but I broke the damn thing! Lol I had to have a episomidy(sp) where they cut you so you don't tear because she was twisted and since the was descending fast, they were worried about me tearing. They tried to maneuver her head and twist her and I nearly had a heart attack it was the worst part, cause the doctor was trying to stick his hands in there and twist her around, while she was descending, and it didn't work anyway. I was in labor for about 32 hours, pushing for about 3 1/2- 4hrs. When I finally did push her out, christina didn't crying for 3 minutes and I was in tears and they wouldn't tell me what was wrong. When she finally started crying I finally took a breath. I don’t think I breathed at all in that 3 minutes that she didn’t cry. Please keep in mind that I was 13 years old when I had christina, so my body was so little and not prepared for labor and delivery which is why I had so many problems, many of you will deliver healthy babies, with no labor complications!

Kelly

Kel,
i am like so proud of you. I bet that was so scary for a child to go through! And you were just a child. Man, I know you must treasure christina so much!
Wow.
Love,
chanda

Thanks chanda! Yeah very hard! Lol your right though I treasure christina because of it. This may sound horrible but when I was pregnant, I wondered it I would truly love her. I mean everyone said you will she is your daughter, but I mean I didn’t feel it and I felt badly. But I will tell you what when she didn’t cry for those 3 minutes that’s when I realized how much I loved her. Its is pretty crazy. And your right I was just a child and damn proud, its my proof that if I can do it, so can anyone of you girls!

Kel

Thanks jen! I admire you though! 3 babies very close in age, very young! You are a great mother!!
