Back at home

dani_girl08

The afternoon u/s showed that between my doctor manually removing the clots and them being expelled with pitocin, there was only one 3cm clot remaining.  It was in my cervix.  The doctor gave me the option of going under general anesthesia to remove it, or to get another dose of pain killers & grin & bear it.  I decided to grin & bear it because I didn't want to have to deal with pumping & dumping or being too tired to take care of Reese from the anesthesia.  She actually got it out relatively quickly, but the pain was intense.  They made us stay for a couple more hours & had me walk around, etc. to be sure that the bleeding had stopped.  Things look like they're under control now.  She is keeping me on an oral medication (I think it's methergen??) to continue the uterine contractions for 2 days to reduce the risk of further bleeding.  She put me on more antibiotics to treat any possible infection as well.  Thank you so much for the T,Ps, & vibes today.  It was a very scary situation, & it made me feel good to know that you ladies were thinking of me.  

On a good note, Reese was AMAZING today.  She slept so peacefully all day long, & only woke up to feed.  She made the day so much less stressful, & it was so nice to snuggle my baby while we waited for everything.

I'm so glad you didn't need the anesthesia and they were able to get the clots out. How scary for you. Hopefully this is the last of them!

I love that you got to snuggle with Reese when you waited for everything, that just brings a huge smile to my face.

Glad to hear it seems like everything worked out, pain sucks, but at least it has hopefully fixed the situation.

Oh Dani!!! I'm just catching up on everything!!  I'm so sorry this happened to you   I hope you're feeling better and you can put this whole crap behind you.   Much love, hugs and healthy vibes so you can enjoy your little princess!

I am so glad that you are feeling better.  Did they have you doing the Sitz baths in order to help get the clots out?

And I need to ask... did you have a female deliver the baby or a male?  From my experience, the midwife sat there and refused to stitch me up until she got 10 clots out.  Whereas, with the male doctor the first time, he didn't do any of this and just stitched me up.

So glad you are home!!  Get some rest so you can take care of your DD.
