Chloe

Membrane sweep happened on wednesday at 12 pm, nothing exciting happened but bh. Thursayd around 12 had bloody show started irregular contractions for 3 hrs ranging from 8-10 min and then 5 mins so went to hospital at 4pm, started monitoring me and was only 3 cm still, so after waiting 3 hrs they told me to go for walk for 2 hrs and come back at 930 to be reassed, well when I came back was having contractions every 3 mins around my back and was 4 1/2 cm and they decided to keep me because of my past hemorraghe, waited in triage till 1130 where I got my room and the nurse managed to swell and bruise my hand sticking in the iv, good times. After 2 hrs I finally got my epi first time and it only worked on half my side so they toped me up a hour later and I finally got some relief they broke my water and my contractions were irregular again and then slowed down, around 5 am they started oxytocin to get them regular well my epi started to fail again on one side and I had full blowen pain on my right side and contractions every 30 second that brought me to tears, the replacement nurse who was there relieving mine was so dumb and just kept uping the oxy and not noticing that my contractions were every 30 second, and didn't notice I was in pain. Well my nurse came back just to find out I was fully dilated and ready to push, around 550 am I was pushing to relieve the pressure and pain and waiting for the ansthesiologist to come and top me up again,in the meantime I got laughing gas that stuff made me so woozy lol, 10mins later baby was almost out as they stopped me because the doctor wasn't there, finally she came and 2 pushes she came :) all I can say is this labour was so hard 14 hrs and the longiest and If I ever have kids again I am never getting a epi lol my body hates me that is all haha
