@blackbird: mine worked for a while but I don't think I had a pump! They came in and pushed a few bigger doses when it started wearing off and it didn't help. It literally went from no pain to terrifying pain in under 5 minutes it was so fast!!! I had back surgery for scoliosis though so they warned me due to that placement was limited and it may not work!

@blackbird: CONGRATULATIONS!!!! He is precious:) I hope you're feeling okay!
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
Thank you!!
I feel pretty good! My back is killing me where I got the epidural. Just a couple stitches, which is great considering I pushed for about 3 minutes! My dr wanted me to deliver after midnight so I could get an extra day of BP monitoring. Mine's still high
Had some feeding problems-he thinks it's acceptable to bite and chew me, then he wouldn't respond to any food (no swallowing or anything for 10 hours), so they put a line in his stomach and a ton of air and amniotic fluid came out, then they put some formula in to see if that resets him and he BFs in a few hours. I can't wait to take a shower!

@blackbird: congratulations! What a sweet little boy.
My contractions just turned out to be regularly spaced Braxton Hicks. Went into the office this afternoon and my cervix is the same as Monday. ::sad trombone:: So now I am laying down to rest up for a long walk with the dog.

@MsHangry: oh no it'll happen soon enough.
Well I don't really know where to put this, went in for my dr appt and they're afraid I'm turning preeclampsic so I'm in the hospital for monitoring. Hopefully I'll be released tonight but that's to be decided. Baby by next weekend (may 23/24) for sure.

@MsHangry: @andthewildones: thank you.
My BP is horrid the nurse is freaking out. No one has made the call yet but it's highly unlikely that I get to go home.

@jetsa: That's exactly what happened to me! What's your bp? Regardless of the outcome, wishing you an easy delivery.

@avivoca: @Mrs. Lovejoy: @marionberry: thank you guys!
Well they are most likely going to start the induction. Consistently one number has been above 140/90 but typically the other number is near the limit as well spiked up to 153/112
grapefruit / 4663 posts
And shift change so now I'm staying over night but they are not inducing.
They got 1 normal BP reading while I was laying on my left side. I don't see how that makes everything better but apparently it does

@jetsa: Good luck with the monitoring! Maybe we will be birthday twins tomorrow!

@jetsa: yikes! Hope your bp is at least somewhat controlled enough that you can rest. Sounds like a couple babies more are imminent, though!
@SeptMomma12: good luck tomorrow!
pomelo / 5041 posts
@jetsa: Mine was up to 173/92. Your readings really don't seem horrendous and my understanding is that the readings under 160 are only risky if they last over 4 hours (which is probably why they're happy about the low one). Hopefully they continue to go down and maybe you can go home on meds.

@marionberry: they told me they wanted them under 140/90 at the dr office, I've been consistently high 130s over high 80s for 6+ weeks plus the other symptoms has them worrying I'm pre-eclampsic. They are typically 140/90 if I'm leaning/laying back and go higher if I'm sitting up. It just seems risky considering I'm 38 weeks per their dates 39 on mine, the ultrasound tech said she was measuring behind as well which can be a sign of a BP issue.=\ they'd already decided to induce me next week due to the highish BP and so they're just watching out for the other now
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
@jetsa: I totally feel for you right now! Stupid BP! My numbers were about the same except I was overdue so that pushed me over the edge. If they induce you, I hope it goes quickly and smoothly! Are you spilling protein too? Argh. How are you feeling about it?
grapefruit / 4663 posts
@blackbird: thanks I'm ready to be induced with her measuring weird, I'm freaked out for baby. Idk I'm here until this evening to finish the 24 hours protein.

@SeptMomma12: good luck today momma! I hope yours is way more routine then what I'm dealing with right now
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
@jetsa: totally understand! Such a relief once they're out! Can't wait to see that sweet baby girl!!!
wonderful grape / 20453 posts
@SeptMomma12: squeeeee!!! Happy bday to your baby girl! Hope your repeat C goes well!
Did you guys all notice we all have palindrome babies this week? 5-10-15 through 5-19-15
clementine / 972 posts
@blackbird: @SeptMomma12: I'm so excited for both of you! More babies!
clementine / 972 posts
@blackbird: Yes!! That's why I'm hoping to not go past my due date (5/19). I'm so weirdly intrigued by cool number combos like that (my daughter's birthday is 5/25 and she was born at 12:34AM)
kiwi / 549 posts
@Mrs. Lovejoy: my son was born on 11-12-13 at 22:22 aka 11:22pm! I was hoping for baby girl to come 5-1-15 and that was my scheduled c section but she had other plans!

It's baby day! I'm no longer a fraud for posting on this board
Pitocin and IV will be started in the hour and then they'll wait to break my waters until they get 2 bags of antibiotics in me.

Oh wow! It was like no babies forever and now it's raining babies!!!
@jetsa: Happy Baby Day! Wishing you a super easy delivery and 10 Apgar baby:) Can't wait for your update!!!
@SeptMomma12: I hope your RCS went perfectly and you are holding your beautiful girl right now! Your son has got to be so excited that he'll get his baby finally!
