So now that Fynlie is a month old, (I suck at blogging)
I figured I would write my birth story and such :)
We went in bags packed and all at 7:45 AM to be induced!!
Got all hooked up and started pitocin and got my water broke around 9 AM
Everything was going really smoothly and got my levels checked to see if I could have an epidural.
Ever since I was 10 I have had bad platelet count and with Trace was unable to have an epidural because of it. But this time my levels were BARELY high enough in order for me to have one! YAY?
The anesthesiologist came in and attempted to put the epidural in and couldn't, attempted again and finally after about 20 minutes of trying he finally got it in! As soon as it all kicked in my blood pressure bottomed out and Fynlie's heart rate sky rocketed. So they shut down the pitocin and waited for everything to even out. So for about 2 hours I was at a 5 just trying to level out.
Once everything leveled out my contractions were full blown and hurting now.
I started pushing at 8:00
