Hey Ladies,
I am so thrilled to finally be on the other side of the AL community. A brief intro first: First BFP was in May of 2013 at just over 5 weeks, the next day I had a MC. Second BFP was in July 2013, and baby girl Micaila was born on May 2nd.
Birth story:
After waiting a week and a half past 40 weeks I was started on Cervidil to ripen my cervix. Then induced a few days later with Oxytocin. It was a slow process, I was started on the lowest dose with increases every hour. After hours of inconsistent contractions my water was broken. Then contractions every 60 seconds. Back labor as she was sunny-side up, which made me scream for an epidural. After that was placed it was another 45 minutes before I started pushing. About 4 hours later I had an episiotomy and they had to use the vacuum to get her head out. After that it was smooth sailing. She was born at 0449!!! Labor started at 1530 the day before.
And here she is:
#1 BFP 26/May/2013 EDD 27/Jan/2014 MC at 5 weeks, 2 days
#2 BFP 04/Aug/2013 EDD April 18th, 2014. Baby M born May 2, 2014.
