Planning a Baby  Discussion Forum

Hi Archie,
I am sorry for late update but its coz of my time after delivery. I am really very thankful to you for all the support and advice you gave me during my pregnancy.
I delivered a baby girl on 1st of April, it was an emergency c-section due to the following reasons -
1. My water broke and baby had pooed in it.
2. Baby was high.
3. I was not dialating as I should have even after giving medication.
4. Babies heart rate was going down.
To my bad luck the epidural done was not proper thus the next to next day I had to go through blood patch to rectify that. After that BP - lot of complications.Anyways by gods grace I am back to normal.Do not remember half of the things and do not want to , to be frank. Anyways all pain vanishes when I see my little one.
Thanks a lot Archie for the support and advice.Hope that u continue giving support to all.

Regards,
Veena

Hearty congratulations to you and family.

Yes, it's important not to remember the bad part, to make your recovery easy and life comfortable.

I am glad that after all trouble the baby is healthy and sound and that you are recovering better and taking it easy. I have been through the same, especially Abnormal Fetal Heart rate and slow progress referring to dilation. Although I think my Dr. was in rush on increasing Pitocin, which she agreed on my 6 weeks visit that the end was not pleasant. Regardless of all I been through C-section but no regrets today everytime I see my boy smiling and active.

I will try to continue my work, my only concern is I am not able to spend enough time as I have my family and office responsibilities as well. But sure would continue to fill needy with knowledge and I feel glad if it makes any help to pregnant couple. I know being away from family is very big deal and any help from any source is welcome, I been through!
