Re: moms with more then one | | OK, in a nut shell... Baby #1 was born via c-section after 48 hours labor, pitocin included. They gave me an epidural after 24 hrs. simply because I was totally wiped out. They finally did an x-ray to see why the baby wasn't coming and discovered his head wedged against my heart-shaped pelvis. My OB/GYN said no baby would ever fit through.
Baby #2 was supposed to be a scheduled c-section, however, my water broke 5 days prior to the scheduled date. It happened to be on a Saturday when surgeries aren't usually scheduled. The medical staff on call had to come in to deliver her via c-section. We still had that element of surprise! LOL!
I'm so very glad we didn't try a home birth. |
