I have no insight but so happy, after all that drama, that you and the baby turned out to be healthy!!
I can't answer for the 1st part, but I can answer about the broken tail bone. My ds also broke my tail bone on his way out-horrifically painful for the next 8 months-anyway, I talked to some people at work and it happened to one lady here. She had it with her first baby and the 2nd one there was no problem. It was like the first baby paved the way for the 2nd-so I have a little hope that the whole tail bone issue won't happen again. Good luck.
Thanks. I'm signed up for physical therapy for the tailbone so we'll see. Hate to have it 'fixed' only for it to pop out of wack again.
I too am very, VERY grateful that the little man is ok. He scared me 3 times already. Birth--we thought he was still born (it took them 30+ min to get him to a level of being ok). 6 weeks he acquired RSV and was in the hospital for a week. Then he got another bout of bronchiolitis at 3 mo. I HATE when he has respiratory issues. I can't sleep, eat, etc. I wound up sleeping on the hardwood floor with pillows because I wanted to be there with him for every second in case something bad happened.
Being a parent, while beautiful, can be the most stressful thing ever.
